SIN → SZB
Which side of the plane to sit from Singapore Changi Airport (Singapore) to Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah International Airport (Kuala Lumpur)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers unparalleled views of the Singapore city skyline upon departure and a spectacular panorama of the Kuala Lumpur skyline, including the Merdeka 118 and Petronas Towers, during the final approach into Subang.
Singapore Cityscape
Aerial view of Marina Bay Sands, the Singapore Flyer, and the Central Business District immediately after takeoff from Changi.
Johor-Singapore Causeway
The main land link connecting Singapore and Malaysia, visible as the plane crosses the Johor Strait.
Titiwangsa Range
The lush, forested mountain backbone of Peninsular Malaysia visible in the distance to the East.
KL Skyline
A close-up view of the world's tallest skyscrapers including the Petronas Twin Towers and Merdeka 118 during the descent.
Blue Mosque
The Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Mosque in Shah Alam with its iconic blue dome, located very close to the SZB flight path.
For the best experience, choose a window seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat haze. Morning flights (08:00-10:00) offer the clearest views before tropical convection clouds build up. The approach to SZB is often lower than the approach to KUL, providing much more detailed urban views.
Singapore Strait
One of the world's busiest shipping lanes, filled with hundreds of cargo ships and tankers anchored off the coast.
Strait of Malacca
Expansive views of the turquoise waters and the coastal shipping corridor heading north.
Port Dickson Coast
The white sandy beaches and overwater villas of Malaysia's popular coastal resort town.
Port Klang
Views of Malaysia's largest seaport, showing massive container terminals and the surrounding mangroves.
Pulau Indah
The 'Beautiful Island' which houses part of the port and industrial zones, visible just before the final turn to Subang.
The right side is ideal for sunset views if you are on a late afternoon flight (around 18:30). It offers a peaceful view of the sea and the coastal geography of the western peninsula. Keep an eye out for the Riau Islands of Indonesia visible across the water shortly after takeoff.
