SRG → CGK
Which side of the plane to sit from Achmad Yani Airport (Semarang) to Soekarno-Hatta International Airport (Jakarta)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a spectacular parade of Java's most iconic volcanoes, including Sindoro, Sumbing, and the massive Mount Slamet, which dominate the horizon for most of the flight.

Twin Volcanoes
Breathtaking views of Mount Sindoro and Mount Sumbing standing side-by-side shortly after takeoff from Semarang.
Mount Slamet
The highest peak in Central Java, often rising above the clouds with its distinct volcanic cone.
Mount Cereme
A prominent stratovolcano near Cirebon that serves as a landmark during the mid-flight cruise.
Greater Jakarta Sprawl
The dense urban landscape of Bekasi and East Jakarta as the aircraft begins its final descent into CGK.
Morning flights are best to avoid the afternoon cloud buildup that often obscures volcano peaks. Sitting in front of the wing provides an unobstructed view of the volcanic chain. On clear days, you may even spot Mount Merapi in the distance to the south.

Java Sea Coastline
Continuous views of the North Coast (Pantura), featuring the intricate patterns of shrimp ponds and salt pans.
Port of Cirebon
A major maritime hub visible along the coastline with numerous ships anchored in the Java Sea.
Thousand Islands
The 'Kepulauan Seribu' archipelago appears as emerald gems in the blue sea during the approach to Jakarta.
Tanjung Priok
Indonesia's largest seaport with massive container terminals visible just before landing.
Choose the right side for sunset views on late afternoon flights as the sun dips toward the Java Sea. This side is also superior for spotting the tropical islands of Kepulauan Seribu if the flight takes a northern approach path into Soekarno-Hatta.
