Karimunjawa Islands
A stunning collection of coral islands and turquoise lagoons visible about 15 minutes after takeoff from Semarang.
Belitung Coastline
Mid-way through the flight, catch glimpses of the white sand beaches and unique granite rock formations of Belitung Island.
Riau Archipelago
Detailed views of the hundreds of small, lush tropical islands surrounding Batam and Bintan during the descent phase.
The Singapore Anchorage
An incredible sight of hundreds of cargo ships and tankers anchored in the Singapore Strait, highlighting the scale of global trade.
The right side is the clear winner for morning flights to avoid the sun. Keep your window shade open as you pass the equator to spot the intricate island patterns of the Riau province. Use a polarizing filter on your camera to cut through the haze over the Singapore Strait for the best ship photos.

Java Volcanic Silhouettes
Distant but impressive views of Central Java's massive volcanoes like Mount Merapi and Merbabu shortly after departure.
Tanjung Emas Port
A clear view of Semarang's bustling industrial harbor and the northern coastline of Java during the initial climb.
Sumatran Mangroves
Views of the dense, green mangrove forests and winding river deltas of eastern Sumatra as you approach the Riau Islands.
Marina Bay Skyline
Depending on the landing pattern (specifically Runway 02L), passengers may see the iconic Singapore city skyline in the distance.
On afternoon flights, the left side is shielded from the direct glare of the sun, making it easier to spot the distant volcanic peaks of Java. Watch for the transition from the blue Java Sea to the muddy green deltas of Sumatra's east coast.
