About This Route

Which side of the plane should I sit on flying from Phuket International (HKT) to Bangalore (BLR)?

Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Phuket to Bangalore.

What does the Phuket to Bangalore flight path pass over?

The flight path crosses the Andaman Sea westward from Phuket, then transitions over the Bay of Bengal. The route passes over the eastern coast of India (likely Odisha or Andhra Pradesh coast), then inland across the Deccan Plateau toward Bangalore. Notable midpoint landmarks include the Andaman Sea's open waters, the Indian coastline near Visakhapatnam or Paradip, and the transition from coastal plains to the Deccan Plateau's interior. The Bay of Bengal dominates the central portion of the flight; at cruise altitude (35,000 feet) it appears as a vast expanse of blue-gray water with occasional cloud formations. The Indian coast appears as a thin brown-green line separating sea from land. Interior plateau terrain shows as a patchwork of agricultural fields and sparse vegetation with minimal elevation change.
