Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Seattle to Delhi. Right-side seats capture the most dramatic scenery: the Cascade Range volcanic peaks during takeoff are more visually striking than Delhi's urban approach. The Cascades offer snow-capped summits and clear geographic definition, while the landing approach over Delhi is primarily urban sprawl with subtle natural features.
