Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side provides a superior viewing experience, featuring the lush landscapes of Sri Lanka and the Western Ghats of India, followed by the dramatic skyscrapers of the UAE and Qatar's iconic man-made islands during the final descent.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🌴

Sri Lankan Coastline

Spot the golden beaches and lush green tropical canopy as the flight passes the southern or central part of the island.

⛰️

Western Ghats

Look for the UNESCO-listed mountain range along India's southwestern coast, often shrouded in dramatic mist.

🏙️

UAE Coastline

If the flight path tracks north, enjoy views of the impressive Dubai skyline, including the Burj Khalifa in the distance.

🐚

The Pearl-Qatar

A spectacular view of the oyster-shaped man-made island and its luxury marinas during the approach to Doha.

🏟️

Lusail City

The futuristic cityscape of Lusail, featuring the distinctive crescent-shaped Katara Towers and the massive World Cup stadium.

Select the right side for the best chance of seeing the 'City of the Future' architecture in Qatar. On arrival, aircraft often bank over the Persian Gulf, offering a full panorama of the Doha Corniche to passengers on this side. It is also the preferred side for viewing the lush terrain of South Asia during daylight hours.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🚢

Strait of Malacca

Witness one of the world's most congested shipping lanes, filled with cargo vessels and tankers near the start of the journey.

🏝️

Nicobar Islands

A view of the remote, densely forested emerald islands scattered in the eastern Indian Ocean.

🌊

Arabian Sea Expanse

Deep blue waters providing a serene backdrop, often showcasing unique cloud patterns and seasonal maritime weather.

⛰️

Al Hajar Mountains

The rugged, dark-toned mountain ranges of Oman become visible as the aircraft approaches the Arabian Peninsula.

The left side is ideal for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Indian Ocean. During the descent into Doha, it offers a wider view of the arid desert interior of the Qatar peninsula. To avoid glare during morning flights, keep your window shade partially closed while over the Arabian Sea.
