Ever landed with a stiff neck from squinting into the sun for six hours, or missed a sunset that painted the clouds gold on the other side of the plane? Sunside makes sure that never happens again.
Type your flight number, and Sunside traces the sun along your exact route, minute by minute, before you board. It tells you which side of the cabin the sun will ride, when it will rise or set outside your window, and which seat letter to pick.
CHOOSE YOUR SIDE
• Shade seekers get the cool side of the cabin, with no glare on their screen and easier sleep.
• Photographers and dreamers get golden light and a front-row seat for sunrise or sunset at altitude.
WHAT SUNSIDE SHOWS YOU
• Seat advice in plain words, such as “Sit on the left side in an A seat” or “Choose a right-side F seat.”
• A sun timeline for the entire flight, with sky colors ranging from deep night to bright noon.
• Sunrise and sunset moments that happen in the air, with exact local times.
• Three timeline views: sky bands, window lanes, and a sun altitude curve.
• An interactive 3D globe. Scrub through your flight and watch night sweep across the planet.
• The daylight share of your flight and which side of the cabin gets more sun.
REAL DATA, REAL ASTRONOMY
Flight schedules come from live airline data. The sun’s position is computed using real solar geometry along the great-circle route of your flight. No guesses. No averages.
SUNSIDE PREMIUM
• Flight number lookup with live airline schedules, real departure and arrival times, aircraft type, and airline information filled in automatically.
• Up to 3 live lookups every day.
• Weekly and monthly plans available.
