SIN → KCH
Which side of the plane to sit from Singapore Changi Airport (Singapore) to Kuching International Airport (Kuching)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a more scenic approach into Sarawak, featuring the dramatic silhouette of Mount Santubong and the jagged coastline of Bako National Park.
Changi & Pulau Tekong
Aerial views of Singapore's eastern coastline and the extensive land reclamation projects near Pulau Tekong.
South China Sea
A vast expanse of deep blue water dotted with cargo ships navigating one of the world's busiest shipping lanes.
Mount Santubong
The legendary mountain peak rising 810 meters above the South China Sea, visible during the descent into Kuching.
Bako National Park
Sarawak's oldest national park, characterized by its steep cliffs, rocky headlands, and white sandy beaches.
Book a window seat on the left for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight while capturing the dramatic landscape of the Santubong Peninsula. This side is superior for landmarks during the arrival phase.
Riau Archipelago
Clear views of Batam and Bintan islands in Indonesia shortly after taking off from Singapore.
Singapore Strait
Observe the incredible density of global maritime traffic anchored in the waters south of Singapore.
Sarawak River Delta
A bird's-eye view of the complex river systems and mangrove forests as the plane turns for the final approach.
Kuching Cityscape
The sprawling green suburbs and urban development of the 'Cat City' as you descend toward the runway.
The right side is excellent for spotting the Indonesian islands early in the flight. Note that afternoon flights on this side may experience harsh glare, and views are more focused on inland terrain during the landing.
