SIN β LOP
Which side of the plane to sit from Singapore Changi Airport (Singapore) to Lombok International Airport (Praya)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers an unparalleled view of the iconic volcanic peaks of Bali and Lombok during the final 30 minutes of the flight, including the majestic Mount Agung and the Gili Islands.
Riau Archipelago
Immediately after takeoff from SIN, view the scattering of islands including Batam and Bintan surrounded by turquoise reefs.
Java Sea Crossing
Expansive views of the shallow Java Sea, often dotted with traditional fishing vessels and coral atolls.
Madura Island
The northern coast of Madura visible as the flight transitions from the Java Sea toward the Lesser Sunda Islands.
Mount Agung
A breathtaking view of Bali's highest and most sacred volcano as you fly past the northern coast of Bali.
Gili Islands
The three famous islets (Trawangan, Meno, and Air) appearing as tiny emerald drops in the sea just before the Lombok coastline.
Mount Rinjani
The massive caldera and peak of Indonesia's second-highest volcano dominate the horizon during the descent into Lombok.
Book a morning flight (before 10:00 AM) to see the volcanoes clearly; clouds usually gather around the peaks by midday. Sit behind the wing for unobstructed photos of Mount Agung and the Gili Islands during the descent.
Singapore Strait
A bird's-eye view of one of the world's busiest shipping lanes with hundreds of cargo ships anchored south of Singapore.
Bangka Island
Visible to the south during the initial cruise phase, known for its unique white sand and granite boulder coastlines.
Java Volcanic Chain
Distant views of the massive volcanic peaks of East Java, including the smoking craters of Bromo and Semeru.
Bali Southern Coast
Views of the lush interior of Bali and the rugged limestone cliffs of the Bukit Peninsula in the distance.
Nusa Penida
The dramatic cliffs and deep blue waters surrounding Nusa Penida and Nusa Lembongan visible just before crossing the Lombok Strait.
The right side is excellent for afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. It provides a broader perspective of the Indonesian archipelago's layout and the vastness of the Java mainland to the south.
