Which side of the plane to sit from Tiruchirapally Civil Airport Airport (Tiruchirappalli) to Singapore Changi Airport (Singapore)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side of the aircraft offers superior views of the Malay Peninsula's coastline, including the urban centers of Penang and Kuala Lumpur, as well as the dense tropical landscapes of West Malaysia before the descent into Singapore.
Cauvery Delta
Aerial views of the lush, green agricultural heartland of Tamil Nadu immediately after departure from Tiruchirappalli.
Malay Peninsula Coastline
Dramatic views of the white sandy beaches and turquoise waters of the Langkawi and Kedah regions as the plane approaches land.
Penang Island
Spot the iconic Penang Bridges and the high-rise urban sprawl of Georgetown as the flight tracks south along the coast.
Kuala Lumpur Skyline
On clear days, the silhouette of the Petronas Twin Towers and the KL Tower can be seen in the distance to the east.
Malacca City
View the historic coastal city of Malacca and its bustling port area before the final approach phase.
Sit on the left for the best chance to see the Malaysian mainland. Daytime flights are preferred to capture the contrast between the turquoise Andaman Sea and the dense emerald jungles of the peninsula. During the final approach into Changi, the left side often provides a stunning view of the Singapore skyline and the Marina Bay Sands if the flight arrives from the south over the Riau Islands.
Palk Strait
The narrow stretch of water between India and Sri Lanka, often showcasing beautiful sandbars and coral reefs shortly after takeoff.
Nicobar Islands
Remote and pristine tropical islands appearing as small green jewels in the middle of the vast Bay of Bengal.
Northern Sumatra
The rugged, mountainous terrain of Indonesia's Sumatra island, including volcanic peaks visible across the Malacca Strait.
Malacca Strait Shipping
Watch for the incredible density of cargo ships and tankers navigating one of the world's busiest maritime bottlenecks.
Riau Archipelago
Dozens of small Indonesian islands like Batam and Bintan surrounded by fishing boats and turquoise reefs during the descent.
The right side is excellent for maritime enthusiasts; the Malacca Strait is a parade of global shipping. Look out for the Nicobar Islands about midway through the flight. If the flight lands at Changi from the north, the right side will provide a great view of the massive Singapore port facilities and the hundreds of ships anchored in the southern waters.
