Which side of the plane to sit from Trivandrum International Airport (Trivandrum) to Kuwait International Airport (Kuwait)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior mix of scenic variety, starting with the lush Western Ghats of India, followed by the rugged fjords of the Musandam Peninsula and the glittering urban skylines of the Persian Gulf.

Western Ghats
Dramatic views of the misty, green mountain ranges along India's western coast shortly after departure from Trivandrum.
Mumbai Coastline
If the flight path hugs the coast, you can see the dense skyline and the famous Marine Drive of Mumbai.
Musandam Fjords
The spectacular rocky 'fjords' of Oman's Musandam Peninsula where the mountains meet the turquoise Persian Gulf.
UAE Landmarks
Possible distant views of Dubai's Burj Khalifa and the Palm Jumeirah depending on the specific air traffic corridor.
Gulf Oil Rigs
Numerous offshore oil platforms and tankers visible in the Persian Gulf, especially striking if flying at night.
For morning flights, the right side provides excellent lighting for photography of the Indian coastline and the Musandam Peninsula. Ensure you have a window seat clear of the wing to capture the intricate details of the Gulf's oil infrastructure. In winter months, keep an eye out for seasonal fog over the UAE coast which creates a surreal 'city in the clouds' effect.

Arabian Sea Expanse
Uninterrupted views of the deep blue Arabian Sea during the main cruise phase of the flight.
The Empty Quarter
Aerial views of the Rub' al Khali, the world's largest sand desert, showcasing massive rolling orange dunes.
Al-Ahsa Oasis
The world's largest self-contained oasis appearing as a massive green patch in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia.
Kuwait City Approach
As the plane banks for landing at KWI, the left side often gets a direct view of the Kuwait Towers and the downtown skyline.
Sit toward the back to avoid wing obstruction when viewing the desert dunes. This side is better for afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun while crossing the Arabian Peninsula. Look out for the distinct transition from the blue sea to the stark desert browns of the coast.
