Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Port Blair to Navi Mumbai. Both sides score equally for the full flight, but the right side edges ahead on landing approach. The descent into Navi Mumbai offers superior urban and harbor scenery—container terminals, creek systems, and the Mumbai metropolitan skyline—compared to the left side's open ocean. Takeoff from Port Blair slightly favors the left (coastal views), but landing's urban density and infrastructure visibility on the right provides more memorable scenery overall.

During takeoff from Port Blair (IXZ), sit on the Left side for the best views. Port Blair sits on Andaman Island with immediate coastal views. The left side captures the Andaman Sea shoreline, mangrove-fringed bays, and the archipelago's eastern edge during climb-out. Right side faces inland jungle terrain with less visual distinction. Notable sights include: Andaman Sea coastline, Port Blair harbor and jetties, mangrove-lined Ross Island to the south, dense tropical forest canopy.

When landing at Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMI), sit on the Right side for the best views. Navi Mumbai's approach from the east crosses the Arabian Sea and enters the Mumbai metropolitan area. The right side captures the coastal approach over Thane Creek, Navi Mumbai's harbor infrastructure, and the sprawling urban landscape of the Mumbai conurbation. Left side faces open water and offers less urban detail. Notable sights include: Thane Creek and mangrove wetlands, Navi Mumbai port facilities and container terminals, Mumbai skyline and high-rise clusters in the distance, Elephanta Island to the north.

The flight from Port Blair (IXZ) to Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMI) takes 2h 15m.

The flight crosses the Bay of Bengal from southeast to northwest. Notable features include the Andaman Sea's open waters (first 45 minutes), the transition zone where the sea narrows toward the Indian mainland, the Western Ghats mountain range appearing as a distant ridge on the horizon during cruise (altitude ~25,000 feet), and the coastal approach to Maharashtra with Elephanta Island and the Konkan coastline visible during descent.
