Which side of the plane to sit from Singapore Changi Airport (Singapore) to Frankfurt am Main Airport (Frankfurt)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a front-row seat to a prolonged, dramatic sunset when flying westbound, along with spectacular views of the Alps and the Mediterranean coastline depending on the specific flight path.
Strait of Malacca
View the world's busiest shipping lane immediately after departure from Singapore.
Arabian Deserts
Expansive views of the golden dunes and arid landscapes across the Middle East.
The Alps
Breathtaking snow-capped peaks during the final descent into Central Europe.
Infinite Sunset
Because the plane flies west, the sunset is significantly elongated, offering hours of golden light.
Opt for the left side on daytime or afternoon departures to maximize the sunset duration. During the final two hours of the flight, keep your window shade up for potential views of the Austrian and German Alps. Use a polarizing filter on your camera to reduce window glare during the long golden hour.
Himalayan Vistas
On clear days, the distant snow-capped peaks of the Himalayas are visible to the north while crossing India.
Caspian Sea
View the vast turquoise waters of the world's largest inland body of water.
Caucasus Mountains
Fly over the rugged terrain and high peaks between the Black and Caspian Seas.
Eastern European Cities
Bird's-eye views of the structured urban layouts of cities like Bucharest or Budapest.
The right side is superior for mountain enthusiasts wanting to spot the distant Himalayas and the Caucasus range. If taking a night flight, this side avoids the direct glare of the sun during the day parts of the journey, making it easier to see the terrain below without reflections.
