TLV → BKK
Which side of the plane to sit from Ben Gurion International Airport (Tel-aviv) to Suvarnabhumi Airport (Bangkok)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers an unrivaled view of the Dead Sea shortly after takeoff, followed by the mesmerizing orange dunes of the Empty Quarter and a spectacular descent over the Thai coastline.
The Dead Sea
Breathtaking views of the turquoise salt-rimmed shores and the lowest point on Earth within minutes of takeoff.
Rub' al Khali
The vast, mesmerizing 'Empty Quarter' desert featuring iconic crescent-shaped orange sand dunes.
Andaman Sea Islands
Beautiful emerald islands and coral reefs scattered across the Andaman Sea as you approach Thailand.
Phang Nga Bay
Iconic limestone karsts and cliffs rising vertically out of the emerald-green water near the Thai coast.
Central Thai Plains
A tapestry of green rice paddies and winding canals as the plane descends into Suvarnabhumi.
Sit on the right side for the iconic Dead Sea view; it happens very quickly after takeoff so be ready. For early morning arrivals, this side provides better views without the direct sun glare from the east. Sit forward of the wing for the clearest photography of the desert patterns.
Jerusalem & Judean Hills
A quick view of the historic city and the rugged Judean landscape immediately after departure from Tel Aviv.
UAE Urban Lights
Clear views of the glittering skylines of Dubai and Sharjah during the middle of the flight.
Gulf of Oman
The deep blue waters of the Gulf and the jagged mountains of the Musandam Peninsula.
Western Ghats
Faint views of India's lush green coastal mountain range when crossing the Arabian Sea.
Bangkok Cityscape
Panoramic views of the Chao Phraya River and the dense urban core of Bangkok during the final approach.
Opt for the left side if you are on a night flight to enjoy the intense urban lighting of the Arabian Peninsula. During the day, the glare from the sun is less intense on this side when traveling eastbound.
