Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Delhi to Taipei. The left side wins on both ends: Himalayan foothill glimpses on departure from Delhi and Taiwan's mountainous terrain plus coastline on arrival into Taipei. The right side is dominated by featureless plains on takeoff and hours of open ocean over the South China Sea and East China Sea during cruise.

During takeoff from Indira Gandhi International (DEL), sit on the Left side for the best views. Departing DEL northeast-bound, the left side gives views over the Gangetic plain toward the Himalayan foothills, with a chance of distant snow-capped peaks in clear winter conditions. Delhi's urban sprawl and the Yamuna river are also visible below during initial climb. Notable sights include: Yamuna River, Delhi urban sprawl, distant Himalayan foothills (haze-dependent), Gangetic plain.

When landing at Chiang Kai Shek International (TPE), sit on the Left side for the best views. Approaching TPE from the north or west, the left side offers views of Taiwan's rugged central mountain range and the coastline near Taoyuan before landing. The dramatic contrast between green peaks and the Taiwan Strait coastline is a highlight. Notable sights include: Taiwan Central Mountain Range, Taiwan Strait coastline, Taoyuan coastal plain, Guanyin Mountain.

The flight from Indira Gandhi International (DEL) to Chiang Kai Shek International (TPE) takes 6h 15m.

Route crosses northern Myanmar/southern China border regions, the South China Sea, and the Taiwan Strait, with mostly open water and limited landmass visibility for the bulk of the cruise segment.
