Our Recommendation
9.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the Kuala Lumpur skyline upon departure and a spectacular approach over the turquoise coral reefs of the Redang Marine Park.

Right Side Highlights
9.2
🏙️

Kuala Lumpur Skyline

Excellent views of the Petronas Twin Towers and KL Tower if the flight path tracks slightly east after takeoff.

💧

Kenyir Lake

The massive expanse of Southeast Asia's largest man-made lake, dotted with hundreds of jungle-covered islands.

🚤

Kuala Terengganu Estuary

The mouth of the Terengganu River and the Crystal Mosque can often be seen just before heading offshore.

🪸

Redang Marine Park

Breathtaking aerial views of shallow coral reefs and the vibrant turquoise waters surrounding the island.

⛱️

Pasir Panjang Beach

The island's main white-sand beach is frequently visible during the final banking maneuver into RDN airport.

Sit on the right for the iconic 'island arrival' experience. During the monsoon season (Nov-Feb), flights are rare, but for the rest of the year, mid-day flights offer the best sunlight to illuminate the underwater coral formations.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🕌

Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Mosque

The iconic Blue Mosque in Shah Alam is often visible shortly after departure from Subang.

⛰️

Titiwangsa Mountain Range

Expansive views of Peninsular Malaysia's backbone, featuring dense tropical rainforest and misty peaks.

🏖️

Terengganu Coastline

Clear views of the northern Terengganu beaches as the plane transitions from land to sea.

🏝️

Perhentian Islands

On clear days, the neighboring Perhentian archipelago can be spotted in the distance to the north.

Morning flights are best for avoiding the afternoon cloud buildup over the Titiwangsa Mountains. Keep your camera ready about 10 minutes before descent for the first glimpse of the South China Sea's crystal-clear blue gradient.
