SIN β BDO
Which side of the plane to sit from Singapore Changi Airport (Singapore) to Husein Sastranegara International Airport (Bandung)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the Sumatran coastline, the expansive Java Sea, and a breathtaking perspective of the massive volcanic peaks of West Java during the descent into Bandung.
Singapore Strait
One of the world's busiest shipping lanes, filled with hundreds of cargo ships.
Sumatran Coast
The muddy estuaries and winding rivers of the Jambi and South Sumatra provinces.
Bangka Island
Views of the large island known for its tin mining and white sandy beaches.
Mount Gede-Pangrango
Majestic views of the twin volcanic peaks dominating the horizon as you enter West Java.
Tea Plantations
The rolling green carpets of the Preanger tea estates nestled in the highlands.
This side is excellent for seeing the transition from the flat Sumatran coast to the rugged volcanic terrain of Java. Watch for the dramatic peaks of Mount Gede and Pangrango on the final approach. If flying in the morning, the sun will be behind you, providing perfect lighting for photography of the mountain ranges.
Singapore Skyline
Aerial view of the Marina Bay Sands and CBD shortly after takeoff from Changi.
Bintan Island
Clear views of the northern beaches and resort areas of Indonesia's Bintan island.
Java Sea
Vast turquoise waters dotted with small fishing vessels and coral reefs.
Tangkuban Perahu
The famous upturned-boat-shaped active volcano located just north of Bandung.
Bandung Basin
The dense urban sprawl of Bandung city surrounded by lush mountain ranges.
Look out early for the Singapore skyline as the plane climbs. During the descent, keep your eyes peeled for the distinct crater of Tangkuban Perahu. Morning flights are highly recommended to avoid the heavy afternoon cloud cover that often settles over the Bandung valley.
