Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the Thai coastline along the Gulf of Thailand and a spectacular approach into Bangkok over the Chao Phraya River delta.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏝️

Kra Isthmus

Witness the narrowest part of the Malay Peninsula where the land tapers between the two seas.

🏖️

Prachuap Bays

Beautiful views of the curved white-sand bays and limestone karsts around Prachuap Khiri Khan.

🏙️

Bangkok Skyline

A panoramic view of the sprawling metropolis as the plane aligns for landing at Don Mueang.

🐍

Chao Phraya River

The winding 'River of Kings' and the heavy shipping traffic near the mouth of the Gulf of Thailand.

The right side is ideal for coastal enthusiasts. Morning flights offer the best natural lighting on the Gulf waters. During landing, this side often provides a clearer view of the iconic Bhumibol Bridges and the dense urban grid of central Bangkok.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🌊

Andaman Sea Coast

Stunning views of the turquoise waters and mangrove forests near Ranong during the initial climb.

⛰️

Tenasserim Range

The dense, mountainous jungle border between Thailand and Myanmar visible for much of the mid-flight.

🌳

Kaeng Krachan

A bird's eye view of Thailand's largest national park featuring a vast reservoir and deep green canopy.

🧂

Salt Fields

The geometric, shimmering patterns of the coastal salt pans in Samut Sakhon during the final descent.

Choose this side if you enjoy rugged mountain scenery and lush forest landscapes. On afternoon flights, the sun will be on this side, so consider a morning flight to avoid glare while viewing the Tenasserim hills.
