Our Recommendation
8.4

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a more diverse landscape, featuring the Malaysian coastline during departure, the northern Andaman Islands, the sprawling Godavari River delta, and the iconic Mumbai skyline during the final descent.

Right Side Highlights
8.4
🏙️

Singapore Skyline

Panoramic views of the Marina Bay Sands and the downtown core immediately after takeoff from Changi.

🏝️

Andaman Archipelago

Stunning turquoise waters and white sand beaches surrounding Port Blair and Havelock Island.

🏞️

Godavari Delta

The massive, intricate network of rivers and estuaries as the flight enters Indian airspace over Andhra Pradesh.

⛰️

Western Ghats Escarpments

Dramatic cliff faces and deep valleys near Lonavala and Khandala during the descent.

🏢

Mumbai Metropolis

Breathtaking views of the Bandra-Worli Sea Link and the dense high-rises of North Mumbai.

The right side is highly recommended for the descent into Mumbai. Most flights land on Runway 27, which provides a direct view of the Mumbai suburbs and the city's architectural sprawl. For sunset flights, this side catches the golden hour glow over the Western Ghats. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes before landing.

🌊

Malacca Strait

Observe one of the world's busiest shipping lanes with hundreds of cargo vessels visible from above.

🏝️

Nicobar Islands

Distant views of the remote and lush green southern islands in the Andaman Sea.

🌾

Deccan Plateau

The geometric patterns of central Indian farmland and the arid beauty of the plateau.

⛰️

Sahyadri Mountains

The southern ridges of the Western Ghats, particularly vibrant during the monsoon season.

Sit on the left for better views of the vast Indian Ocean and the southern coastline of India. If the flight arrives at night, you will see the shimmering lights of the southern Mumbai suburbs and the coastline. Morning flights are ideal for seeing the distinct agricultural colors of the Deccan Plateau.
