About This Route

Which side of the plane should I sit on flying from Coxs Bazar (CXB) to Zia International (DAC)?

Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Cox's Bazar to Dhaka. Both sides score equally low due to the flight's short duration (approximately 45 minutes) over predominantly flat terrain with limited dramatic geography. However, the right side edges ahead because Cox's Bazar's coastal departure offers more distinctive visual interest than Dhaka's approach over flat plains. The Bay of Bengal coastline and beach settlement provide brief but recognizable scenery during takeoff, whereas the landing approach is dominated by flat agricultural land with only the river and city providing modest visual relief.

Notable sights include: Cox's Bazar town and beachfront, Bay of Bengal coastline, Laboni Point (southern tip of the beach), inland vegetation and settlement patterns.
