Our Recommendation
9.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side of the aircraft offers a world-class 'Volcano Tour' of Indonesia's Ring of Fire, featuring unobstructed views of the massive Mount Tambora, the iconic Mount Rinjani on Lombok, and the sacred Mount Agung as you descend into Bali.

Right Side Highlights
9.2
🌋

Mount Tambora

The massive caldera of the volcano responsible for the 1815 'year without a summer,' visible on Sumbawa island.

đŸ”ī¸

Mount Rinjani

Lombok's towering 3,726m peak, often rising above a blanket of clouds with its crater rim clearly visible.

🚤

Gili Islands

The three tiny tropical specks of Gili Trawangan, Meno, and Air surrounded by vibrant coral circles.

đŸ”Ĩ

Mount Agung

Bali's highest and holiest volcano, providing a majestic backdrop during the initial descent phase.

🌉

Bali Mandara Toll Road

A unique over-the-water highway stretching across the sea as the plane touches down at Ngurah Rai.

The right side is essential for volcano enthusiasts. Book an early morning flight to see the peaks clearly before tropical clouds build up around the summits. During the dry season (May to September), the air is clearest for viewing Mount Rinjani. On arrival, you will also get a great view of the Sanur coastline and Benoa Harbor.

đŸī¸

Sumba Northern Coastline

Dramatic views of the rugged limestone hills and turquoise fringing reefs as you depart from Waingapu.

🌊

Savu Sea Expanse

Deep blue waters known for whale and dolphin migrations between the Lesser Sunda Islands.

đŸ–ī¸

Kuta Lombok Bays

Bird's-eye view of the white sand crescent beaches and world-famous surfing breaks along southern Lombok.

â›°ī¸

Nusa Penida Cliffs

Stunning vertical limestone cliffs and the famous T-Rex-shaped Kelingking Beach visible during the Bali approach.

â›Šī¸

Bukit Peninsula

The southern tip of Bali, featuring high-end resorts and the Uluwatu temple area before the final turn.

Sit on the left if you want to see the rugged southern coastlines and the dramatic cliffs of Nusa Penida. This side is typically better during mid-day to avoid the direct glare of the sun when flying westbound. Keep your camera ready as the plane maneuvers around the southern tip of Bali for landing.
