Which side of the plane to sit from Trivandrum International Airport (Trivandrum) to Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport (Mumbai)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side provides a continuous panorama of the UNESCO World Heritage Western Ghats, lush tropical forests, and the unique geography of the Indian peninsula's spine.
Western Ghats
The majestic mountain range running parallel to the coast, featuring peaks and deep valleys.
Kerala Backwaters
The intricate network of lagoons and lakes around Alappuzha and Vembanad Lake.
Kochi Cityscape
View of the bustling port city, the Willingdon Island, and the Vallarpadam terminal.
Sahyadri Ridges
Rugged terrain and high-altitude plateaus as the flight moves into Maharashtra.
River Systems
Numerous rivers like the Netravati and Sharavati snaking through the landscape toward the sea.
The right side is ideal for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight glare while watching the sun illuminate the green mountains. Keep an eye out for the distinct change in topography from the tropical palm groves of Kerala to the rugged basalt cliffs of the Sahyadris in Maharashtra.
Arabian Sea
Uninterrupted views of the vast blue expanse stretching toward the horizon.
Goan Coastline
Bird's-eye view of the famous beaches and turquoise waters of the Konkan coast.
South Mumbai Peninsula
Visuals of the Nariman Point and Marine Drive curve during the final approach.
Coastal Sunset
Spectacular golden hour views over the ocean on late afternoon or evening flights.
The left side is superior for evening departures to witness the sunset over the Arabian Sea. During the landing phase at Mumbai (BOM), if the flight approaches from the south, you may get a glimpse of the Bandra-Worli Sea Link and the sprawling coastline.
