Which side of the plane to sit from Vishakhapatnam Airport (Vishakhapatnam) to Indira Gandhi International Airport (Delhi)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side is generally preferred for this route as it offers a chance to see the iconic Taj Mahal during the descent into Delhi and provides better views of the Odisha coastline and Chilika Lake shortly after takeoff.
Chilika Lake
If the flight path arcs slightly east, you can spot the massive brackish water lagoon along the Odisha coast.
Mahanadi River
A bird's-eye view of one of India's major river systems as it snakes through the plains of Raipur.
Taj Mahal
On a clear day during the descent, look out for the white marble dome of the Taj Mahal in Agra to the east.
Himalayan Horizon
On very clear winter mornings, the distant snow-capped peaks of the Himalayas may be visible as you approach Delhi.
Choose a window seat on the right for the best chance to see Agra's landmarks. This side is particularly rewarding on morning flights when the sun is behind you, providing better visibility and lower glare for photography of the Yamuna River and Taj Mahal.
Eastern Ghats
The rugged, green-carpeted peaks of the Eastern Ghats provide a dramatic backdrop immediately after departing Vizag.
Chambal Ravines
The unique 'badlands' topography created by the Chambal River near the Madhya Pradesh border.
Gwalior Fort
A massive 8th-century sandstone fortress perched on a hill, often visible during the mid-to-late stage of the flight.
Evening Glow
On late afternoon flights, this side offers spectacular sunset views over the central Indian plains.
Sit on the left if you are flying in the late afternoon to catch the sunset. It is also the better side for viewing the dense forests of Chhattisgarh and the undulating terrain of the Vindhya Range during mid-flight.
