Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Port Blair to Delhi. While takeoff favors the right for archipelago views, the landing approach on the left provides more dramatic and varied scenery—the Yamuna River, Delhi's urban expanse, and the approach into one of Asia's busiest airports. The landing experience outweighs the takeoff advantage.

During takeoff from Port Blair (IXZ), sit on the Right side for the best views. Port Blair sits on the eastern coast of South Andaman Island. Banking right after departure gives you views of the Andaman Sea and the archipelago's eastern islands, while left would show only dense jungle interior. Notable sights include: Andaman Sea (turquoise waters), South Andaman Island coastline, smaller islands of the Andaman group to the east, Ross Island (small, visible near Port Blair).

When landing at Indira Gandhi International (DEL), sit on the Left side for the best views. Approaching Delhi from the southeast, left-side seats offer views of the Yamuna River, the city's eastern districts, and the approach corridor over the Gangetic Plain. Right would show only agricultural fields and industrial areas west of the airport. Notable sights include: Yamuna River (meandering through Delhi), Indira Gandhi International Airport runways, Delhi's eastern urban sprawl, Aravalli Hills (distant, southwest of approach path).

The flight from Port Blair (IXZ) to Indira Gandhi International (DEL) takes Approximately 3 hours 15 minutes to 3 hours 45 minutes.

The flight crosses the Bay of Bengal heading northwest, passing over the Odisha coast (around 1 hour 15 minutes into flight), where you'll see the coastline, lagoons, and the transition from sea to the Gangetic Plain. The Mahanadi River delta is visible near the coast. After crossing inland, the flight passes over the flat Gangetic Plain with scattered towns, agricultural fields, and occasional rivers (Mahanadi, Brahmani, and later the Ganges itself). The Aravalli Hills appear as a distant ridge on the western horizon approximately 30-40 minutes before landing.
