Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏛️

Menderes Valley

Aerial view of the fertile valleys near the ancient ruins of Ephesus.

💎

Lake Eğirdir

A magnificent turquoise lake surrounded by sharp limestone peaks.

🏔️

Taurus Range

Dramatic views of the snow-capped Central Taurus mountains.

🏙️

Gaziantep

The urban sprawl of one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities.

🌊

Atatürk Dam

The massive reservoir and engineering marvel on the Euphrates River.

For the best experience, choose a window seat behind the wing. The Atatürk Dam is the highlight; it appears on the right just as the plane begins its final descent into Sanliurfa.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🏙️

Izmir Gulf

Glimpses of the city's northern sprawl during departure.

Uşak Plains

The transition from coastal mountains to the high Anatolian plateaus.

⛰️

Mount Sipylus

Rugged terrain north of the flight path during initial climb.

Sit on the left for evening flights to catch the sunset reflecting off the Anatolian plateau. Watch for the city lights of Konya in the distance if flying at night.
