TRV β BAH
Which side of the plane to sit from Trivandrum International Airport (Trivandrum) to Bahrain International Airport (Bahrain)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior scenic variety, providing views of the Western Ghats during departure, the dramatic Musandam Peninsula, and the colorful coral formations of the Persian Gulf upon arrival.
Western Ghats
Breathtaking views of the mist-covered Sahyadri mountain range rising above the coastal plains of Trivandrum.
Musandam Peninsula
The 'Fjords of Arabia' where rugged limestone mountains meet the turquoise waters of the Strait of Hormuz.
UAE Coastline
Distant but clear views of the UAE's modern architecture, including the Burj Khalifa, depending on the specific airway used.
Persian Gulf Reefs
Stunning turquoise and azure water patterns created by shallow reefs and sandbanks surrounding the Bahraini islands.
The right side is best for morning flights to avoid direct sun glare. Keep your camera ready about 40-50 minutes before landing to capture the dramatic jagged peaks of the Musandam Peninsula as you enter the Gulf.
Kerala Coastline
Lush views of the tropical backwaters and the emerald green landscape of southern India immediately after takeoff.
Arabian Sea
A vast, serene expanse of deep blue water during the mid-flight cruise phase.
Qatar Peninsula
Distant views of the Doha skyline and the unique artificial islands like The Pearl during the descent.
Bahrain Bay
Aerial perspective of the northern Bahraini coastline and the iconic Bahrain World Trade Center towers during final approach.
Choose the left side for spectacular sunsets during evening flights. During the descent, look for the Pearl-Qatar and the high-rise clusters of Doha's West Bay which are often visible on the horizon.
