Our Recommendation
8.7

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a front-row seat to the dramatic Pir Panjal range upon departure and the lush Western Ghats during the approach into Mumbai.

Left Side Highlights
8.7
🏔️

Pir Panjal Range

Breathtaking views of the snow-capped mountain peaks immediately after takeoff from Srinagar.

🌾

Punjab Plains

The geometric patterns of India's agricultural heartland and the winding Sutlej River.

⛰️

Aravalli Range

The rugged, ancient folded mountains stretching through Rajasthan and Haryana.

🌲

Western Ghats

Lush green ridges and deep valleys as the flight descends into the Maharashtra region.

Book a window seat on the left for morning flights to see the sun illuminating the Himalayan peaks. During the monsoon season (June–September), the views of the Western Ghats turn exceptionally green with visible waterfalls during the descent.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🏔️

Greater Himalayas

Distant but majestic views of the higher Himalayan ranges during the initial climb phase.

🏜️

Thar Desert

The arid beauty and golden sand dunes of the Rajasthani desert landscape.

🌊

Gulf of Khambhat

The massive estuary where the Sabarmati river meets the Arabian Sea near the Gujarat coast.

🏙️

Mumbai Skyline

A panoramic view of the Mumbai coastline, including the Bandra-Worli Sea Link, if the flight enters from the north.

This side is superior for sunset flights as you can watch the sun sink into the Arabian Sea. As you approach Mumbai, keep an eye out for the massive salt pans of Gujarat and the bustling shipping lanes near the port.
