Our Recommendation
8.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers superior views of the rugged Phetchabun mountain ranges and the winding Chao Phraya River during the final descent into Bangkok.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
⛰️

Phu Kradueng Plateau

The distinctive flat-topped heart-shaped mountain visible in the western distance.

🌳

Central Highlands

The lush, forested ridges of the Phetchabun Range separating the Isan region from Central Thailand.

🏛️

Lopburi Basin

Vast limestone outcrops and historical plains visible as the aircraft begins its descent.

🚤

Chao Phraya River

The winding 'River of Kings' as it snakes through Pathum Thani toward Bangkok.

🌆

Bangkok Urban Sprawl

Panoramic views of the capital's high-rises and the massive Don Mueang airfield complex on approach.

The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to witness the sunset over the central plains. During the landing phase at DMK, this side frequently offers a direct view of the Chao Phraya River's dramatic curves and the dense Bangkok skyline.

Left Side Highlights
6.5
🏙️

Udon Thani City

Aerial view of the city center and Nong Prajak Park immediately after takeoff.

🌾

Isan Rice Paddies

The iconic geometric patchwork of agricultural land across the Khorat Plateau.

🏢

Khon Kaen Skyline

The urban sprawl of the regional hub visible to the east mid-flight.

🌊

Pasak Cholasit Reservoir

Distant views of Thailand's longest clay-core dam and its vast water surface.

✈️

Suvarnabhumi Airspace

Distant views of the eastern suburbs of Bangkok and the approach paths for BKK airport.

Choose the left side for morning flights to enjoy the sunrise over the plateau without direct glare. This side is better for observing the vast, flat agricultural landscape that defines northeastern Thailand.
