SINADL

Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers superior views of the Indonesian volcanic arc, the vast salt lakes of the South Australian outback, and the lush Mount Lofty Ranges upon approach.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏝️

Riau Archipelago

A scattered collection of Indonesian islands visible immediately after departing Singapore's airspace.

🌋

Java Volcanic Chain

Dramatic views of active volcanoes like Mount Merapi rising above the clouds in Central Java.

🌊

Great Australian Bight

The point where the arid Australian continent meets the turquoise waters of the Southern Ocean.

🧂

Lake Torrens

An enormous, shimmering endorheic salt lake that appears as a vast white expanse in the desert.

🏙️

Adelaide Hills & CBD

Sweeping views of the green Mount Lofty Ranges and the city skyline during the final descent.

For the typical overnight SIN-ADL service, the left side is the 'sunrise side,' providing a spectacular dawn view over the Australian desert. Aim for a window seat away from the wing to clearly see the Flinders Ranges and Lake Torrens about 45 minutes before landing.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
🌴

Western Java Coastline

Lush tropical scenery and intricate coastlines as the flight transitions toward the Indian Ocean.

🏜️

Great Sandy Desert

Striking red sand dunes and ancient geological formations of the uninhabited Western Australian interior.

🕳️

Nullarbor Plain

The world's largest single exposure of limestone, showcasing a uniquely flat and treeless landscape.

⚓

Spencer Gulf

Deep blue water channels separating the Eyre Peninsula from the South Australian mainland.

🌾

Eyre Peninsula

A mosaic of agricultural fields and rugged coastal cliffs visible just before crossing into Gulf St Vincent.

The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to enjoy the sunset over the desert. It offers the best perspective of the Eyre Peninsula's unique coastline. If the plane lands towards the southwest (Runway 23), this side provides views of the coast and beaches.
