Manama Skyline
Sweeping views of the Bahraini capital and the iconic Bahrain World Trade Center shortly after takeoff.
Zagros Mountain Range
The dramatic, folded limestone ridges of southern Iran, showcasing intricate geological formations.
Dasht-e Lut
Views of the edges of this vast desert, known for its extreme temperatures and unique salt flats.
Hindu Kush Peaks
Majestic high-altitude mountain vistas as the flight turns north towards the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province.
Khyber Pass
The historic mountain pass connecting Pakistan and Afghanistan, visible during the final approach phase.
Choose the left side for the best mountain photography. If flying during the day, the sun will generally be behind or above you for much of the eastbound leg, reducing glare. Pay close attention during the last 45 minutes of the flight when the terrain becomes significantly more vertical and dramatic.
