The right side offers an extraordinary sequence of world-renowned landmarks, including the Dead Sea, the Sinai Peninsula, and the lush green ribbon of the Nile River cutting through the Sahara Desert.
Search flights from AMM to KRT
The Dead Sea
The lowest point on Earth is clearly visible to the west shortly after takeoff from Amman.
Sinai Peninsula
The stark, jagged granite peaks of the Sinai mountains, including the area around Mount Catherine.
Lake Nasser
The massive, turquoise man-made reservoir created by the Aswan High Dam near the Egypt-Sudan border.
The Nile River
The life-giving green strip of vegetation and ancient settlements surrounded by the vast Sahara.
The Confluence
The spectacular sight of the White and Blue Niles meeting at Khartoum just before touchdown.
The right side is the definitive choice for this route. Afternoon flights are ideal as the sun will be behind you, perfectly illuminating the Nile Valley. Watch closely during the descent into Khartoum; the pilot often tracks the Nile, offering a bird's-eye view of the 'Mogran' where the two Niles merge.

Wadi Rum
The dramatic red sandstone mountains and desert floor of southern Jordan visible shortly after departure.
Hejaz Mountains
The rugged, dark mountain ranges of northwest Saudi Arabia stretching along the horizon.
Red Sea Coastline
Contrast between the deep blue waters and the arid coastal plains of the eastern Red Sea.
Port Sudan
A view of Sudan's primary port city and its industrial layout as you transition toward central Sudan.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. Keep your camera ready shortly after takeoff from Amman to capture the Martian-like landscapes of the Jordanian desert. As you head south, the coastal transition into Sudan provides interesting geological patterns in the Red Sea Hills.
