Plaisance to Bangalore flight path: MRU to BLR

Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Plaisance to Bangalore. The left side captures Mauritius's most scenic coastal terrain during departure and offers a distant view of the Western Ghats and Deccan hill country during arrival, while the right side faces mostly featureless ocean and flat plateau throughout.

During takeoff from Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International (MRU), sit on the Left side for the best views. Departing MRU on runway 14 (southeast heading) with a left turn toward India, left-side passengers get a good look at Mauritius's southwest coastline, including the dramatic Le Morne Brabant headland and the turquoise lagoons before the island falls away into open ocean. Notable sights include: Le Morne Brabant peninsula, Black River Gorges highlands, Mauritius lagoon and reef, southern coastline.

When landing at Kempegowda International Airport Bengaluru (BLR), sit on the Left side for the best views. On approach into BLR from the south, the Western Ghats' eastern foothills and scattered granite hill ranges of the Deccan plateau are visible off the left side before the aircraft lines up with the east-west runway, adding some relief to an otherwise flat plateau landing. Notable sights include: Western Ghats foothills, Deccan plateau granite hills, Bangalore reservoirs and lakes, Nandi Hills escarpment.

The flight from Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International (MRU) to Kempegowda International Airport Bengaluru (BLR) takes about 5 hours 45 minutes. The shortest flight path between them is 2,692 miles (4,333 km); winds and air traffic control usually add a few percent.

The route crosses the open Indian Ocean, passing west of the Chagos Archipelago and east of the Maldives, with no land visible for several hours before approaching the Indian coastline near Karnataka.
