SINHYD

Our Recommendation
7.8

Left Side of the Plane

The Left Side is generally preferred for this route as it offers better views of the Singapore city skyline upon departure and provides a clearer perspective of the Andaman Islands and the rugged Eastern Ghats when entering the Indian subcontinent.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🏙️

Singapore Skyline

Spectacular views of Marina Bay Sands, the CBD, and the southern waterfront during the initial climb.

⛰️

Sumatran Barisan Mountains

Across the Strait of Malacca, the distant volcanic peaks of Northern Sumatra often peek through the clouds.

🏝️

Andaman Islands

Visuals of the lush, tropical Andaman and Nicobar archipelago scattered across the turquoise sea.

⛰️

Eastern Ghats

Dramatic views of the ancient, weathered mountain ranges as the plane transitions from the Bay of Bengal into India.

🏟️

Hyderabad Suburban Landscapes

Views of the sprawl of Secunderabad and the Hussain Sagar Lake area depending on the landing pattern.

Choose the left side for morning flights (typically the 08:00-10:00 AM departures) to avoid direct sunlight and glare. During the descent into Hyderabad, the left side often captures the city's unique balance of rocky heritage sites and urban density. Ensure a window seat away from the wing for the best view of the Andaman island chain.

Right Side Highlights
6.8
🚢

Singapore Port & Ships

Aerial view of the world's busiest transshipment hub with hundreds of vessels anchored in the strait.

🌊

Strait of Malacca

Observation of one of the world's most vital maritime chokepoints with constant ship traffic.

🌾

Godavari River Delta

Aerial patterns of the intricate river networks and fertile agricultural plains near the Andhra coast.

🏢

HITEC City

As the plane nears HYD, you can often see the modern glass towers of Hyderabad's tech corridor.

The right side is excellent for afternoon flights to catch the sunset over the Indian landscape as you approach Hyderabad. On approach, watch for the distinct change from the lush coastal greenery of Andhra Pradesh to the arid, rocky Deccan Plateau. Keep your camera ready for the ship formations in the Singapore Strait immediately after takeoff.
