PNH β SIN
Which side of the plane to sit from Phnom Penh International Airport (Phnom-penh) to Singapore Changi Airport (Singapore)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior mix of coastal geography, including the islands of the Gulf of Thailand and a high probability of seeing the iconic Singapore skyline and the Johor Strait during the final approach.
Phnom Penh Cityscape
Immediate views of the Tonle Sap and Mekong confluence and the rapidly growing urban sprawl of the Cambodian capital.
PhΓΊ Quα»c Island
The large, teardrop-shaped Vietnamese island located in the Gulf of Thailand, known for its white sand beaches.
Malay Peninsula Coast
Scanning the shoreline of Terengganu and Pahang, featuring dense rainforests meeting the turquoise sea.
Marina Bay Sands
If landing on Runway 02, you get a stunning panoramic view of the CBD, Gardens by the Bay, and the iconic triple-tower hotel.
Johor-Singapore Causeway
The busy land link between Malaysia and Singapore visible if the flight approaches from the north.
The right side is the 'scenic winner' for the approach. For the best experience, book an afternoon flight to see the Malay coastline bathed in gold. To see the Singapore skyline, hope for a 'Runway 02' landing; this occurs most frequently during the Northeast Monsoon (December to March). Use the flight map to track when you cross the Malaysian coastline near Kuantan.
Mekong Delta Fringe
Aerial views of the southern reaches of the Mekong river system as it meets the South China Sea.
Bintan & Batam
The lush, tropical islands of Indonesia's Riau Archipelago visible during the descent into Changi.
Singapore Strait Anchorage
A massive gathering of hundreds of cargo ships and tankers waiting outside the world's busiest transshipment hub.
Changi Jewel & Terminals
Clear views of the expansive airport infrastructure and the coastline of Pulau Ubin upon touchdown.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the harsh western sun. This side is particularly interesting during the final 15 minutes of flight when passing over the dense shipping lanes of the Singapore Strait. Look for the distinctive red-tiled roofs of Indonesian coastal villages just before crossing into Singaporean airspace.
