Right Side of the Plane

The right side provides the most iconic views, featuring the Belgrade city center upon departure and the world-famous Dubai skyline, including the Burj Khalifa, during arrival.

Right Side Highlights
8.9
🏰

Belgrade Fortress

Spectacular views of Kalemegdan and the Sava-Danube confluence immediately after takeoff.

🏔️

Taurus Mountains

South-facing view of the dramatic limestone peaks that run along the Mediterranean coast of Turkey.

🌾

Tigris-Euphrates Valley

The historic heart of Mesopotamia, showing the transition from desert to fertile river basin.

🏝️

World Islands

The famous artificial archipelago shaped like a world map visible during the descent into Dubai.

🏙️

Dubai Skyline

A clear view of the Burj Khalifa and the futuristic architecture along Sheikh Zayed Road on the standard approach.

The right side is essential for the iconic Dubai arrival. For daytime flights, the sun will be behind you in the morning, offering perfect lighting for photos of the Taurus mountains and the Dubai coast. Most DXB approaches from the north favor this side for city views.

Left Side Highlights
7.4
🌊

The Danube River

Aerial views of the Danube as it winds through the Serbian and Bulgarian border regions.

🏔️

Eastern Anatolia

The rugged, high-altitude volcanic plateaus of central Turkey provide a stark, beautiful landscape.

⛰️

Zagros Mountains

Incredible views of the folded mountain belts and salt domes in Western Iran.

🏜️

Hajar Mountains

The arid, sharp-edged mountain range on the UAE-Oman border during the final approach.

Opt for the left side on night flights to see the shimmering lights of coastal Iranian cities. In winter, the snow-covered Zagros mountains are best viewed around midday for maximum contrast when the sun is higher.
