Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Hobart to Adelaide. While takeoff favors the right for Derwent River views, landing on the left provides superior geography with the dramatic Adelaide Hills and city approach. The landing view is more visually rewarding and geographically significant than the takeoff, making left the better overall choice for this route.

During takeoff from Hobart (HBA), sit on the Right side for the best views. Hobart typically departs runway 12 (northbound) or 30 (southbound). Right-side seats offer views of the Derwent River estuary and the Tasman Peninsula across the water to the east. Left seats face inland toward the less dramatic terrain west of the airport. Notable sights include: Derwent River estuary, Tasman Peninsula (eastern shore), Storm Bay, Mount Wellington (visible inland to the northwest during climb).

When landing at Adelaide International (ADL), sit on the Left side for the best views. Adelaide typically lands runway 03 (northbound) or 21 (southbound). Left-side seats during descent offer views of the Adelaide Hills to the east and the city's grid layout approaching from the south. Right seats face the flat, less distinctive terrain west toward the Gulf. Notable sights include: Adelaide Hills (Mount Lofty Range), Adelaide city grid and parklands, Gulf St. Vincent, Barossa Valley foothills (distant).

The flight from Hobart (HBA) to Adelaide International (ADL) takes Approximately 1 hour 10 minutes.

The flight path crosses the Furneaux Group islands and Bass Strait, then approaches the South Australian coast near the Coorong and Lake Alexandrina. The Grampians and Barossa Valley foothills are visible to the east during the descent phase. The entire route follows a northwest trajectory across open water and relatively flat to gently rolling terrain.
