Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Boston to Delhi. The right side wins overall primarily for the spectacular Boston departure views of the harbor and skyline. The flight path over Canada, Greenland's southern tip, and then across Central Asia offers periodic geographic interest on both sides, but the departure experience on the right is the most consistently rewarding single moment of the flight. Delhi's arrival views are relatively modest regardless of side due to haze.

During takeoff from General Edward Lawrence Logan International (BOS), sit on the Right side for the best views. Logan's primary departure runway 22L/22R sends aircraft southwest over Boston Harbor and the city. A right-side seat gives you a clear look back at downtown Boston, the Financial District skyline, and the Charles River basin as you climb out over the harbor. Left side faces water and the South Shore suburbs with less to see. Notable sights include: Downtown Boston skyline and Financial District, Boston Harbor islands, Charles River and Cambridge, Fenway Park neighborhood grid.

When landing at Indira Gandhi International (DEL), sit on the Left side for the best views. Indira Gandhi International primarily uses runways 28/29 for arrivals from the east, meaning aircraft approach from the east heading west. A left-side seat faces south, giving views over central Delhi — Connaught Place, India Gate, and the dense urban fabric of South Delhi. The right side faces north toward the less distinctive northern suburbs. Notable sights include: India Gate and Rajpath ceremonial boulevard, Connaught Place circular commercial district, Qutub Minar area in South Delhi, Yamuna River to the east.

The flight from General Edward Lawrence Logan International (BOS) to Indira Gandhi International (DEL) takes Approximately 14 to 15 hours nonstop.

The great circle route tracks northwest over Quebec and Labrador, then crosses the southern tip of Greenland near Narsarsuaq where the ice sheet edge and fjords are visible, continues over Iceland's vicinity, then crosses Scandinavia or the UK depending on winds, transits Central Asia over the Caspian Sea, then crosses Afghanistan and Pakistan before descending into Delhi. The Hindu Kush and Karakoram ranges may be visible in the distance on the final approach leg if skies are clear.
