Which side of the plane to sit from Vijayawada Airport (Vijayawada) to Kempegowda International Airport (Bangalore)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the Vijayawada urban landscape and the Prakasam Barrage upon takeoff, followed by the scenic Nandi Hills during the descent into Bangalore.
Prakasam Barrage
A clear view of the iconic 1.2km long barrage spanning the Krishna River right after takeoff.
Indrakeeladri Hill
Home to the Kanaka Durga Temple, visible as the plane climbs out of Vijayawada.
Nallamala Foothills
The flight crosses the eastern edges of these hills, showing rugged terrain and seasonal greenery.
Nandi Hills
The famous hill fortress and weekend getaway appears prominently on the right during the approach to BLR.
Kempegowda International
Excellent views of the airport's modern terminal architecture and taxiway systems upon landing.
The right side is ideal for evening flights to witness the sunset over the Deccan Plateau. Keep your camera ready during the final 10 minutes of flight to capture the distinctive silhouette of Nandi Hills.
Krishna River Delta
Expansive views of the river splitting into various distributaries towards the Bay of Bengal.
Guntur City
Aerial perspective of one of Andhra Pradesh's major commercial and educational hubs.
Deccan Farmlands
A vast patchwork of agricultural fields transitioning from the fertile delta to the semi-arid plateau.
Seshachalam Range
Distant views of the rugged mountain ranges located towards the south of the flight path.
Sit on the left for early morning flights to enjoy the soft golden light reflecting off the Krishna River. This side is also better for spotting the dense agricultural grids of the Guntur district.
