Our Recommendation
7.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior experience due to the potential sighting of the Taj Mahal near Agra and the extensive urban views of Pune and Delhi during takeoff and landing.

Right Side Highlights
7.5
🏙️

Pune Cityscape

Aerial view of Pune's rapid urban expansion and the Mula-Mutha river system upon takeoff.

🕌

Agra & Taj Mahal

On clear days, if the flight path tracks slightly east, the white marble of the Taj Mahal is visible near the Yamuna.

🌊

Yamuna River

The winding path of the Yamuna River serves as a geographic guide leading directly into the capital.

🏢

NCR Urban Sprawl

Dense high-rises of Noida and Greater Noida are often visible during the final descent into DEL.

The right side is ideal for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight glare. Keep a sharp eye out approximately 30-40 minutes before landing; if the sky is clear, the Agra region and the Yamuna river provide the flight's most iconic landmarks.

Left Side Highlights
6.8
⛰️

Sahyadri Foothills

Dramatic views of the Western Ghats' northern edges shortly after departing from Pune.

🏜️

Malwa Plateau

Vast stretches of the Deccan Trap's volcanic landscape across central India.

🌅

Evening Horizon

Uninterrupted views of the sunset over the horizon on late afternoon flights heading north.

Select the left side for evening departures to enjoy the sunset. During the monsoon season (June–September), this side provides incredible views of lush green hills and cloud formations over the Deccan plateau.
