Our Recommendation

The right side offers a superior view of the dramatic geological shift from the Sahara to the Sinai mountains and the unique salt structures of the Dead Sea.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏜️

Sahara Desert

Sweeping views of the Libyan and Egyptian desert plateaus with intricate wind-carved patterns.

🚢

Suez Canal

A top-down view of the vital maritime artery and ships transiting the Great Bitter Lake.

🏔️

Sinai Mountains

The rugged, reddish-brown granite peaks of the Sinai Peninsula create a dramatic moon-like landscape.

🧂

The Dead Sea

Views of the world's lowest point, featuring white salt formations and deep turquoise brine.

🏜️

Jordanian Canyons

The jagged wadis and desert canyons of western Jordan as you descend toward Amman.

The right side is best for geography enthusiasts. Look out for the Suez Canal approximately midway through the flight. Late afternoon flights provide exceptional golden-hour lighting on the Sinai mountains and the Dead Sea's crystalline shores.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🌊

Mediterranean Coastline

Clear views of the turquoise waters meeting the North African shore as you depart Benghazi.

🌿

Nile Delta

The stark green contrast of the fertile delta fan against the surrounding arid Egyptian landscape.

🏙️

Alexandria

The historic Egyptian port city is often visible along the coastal trajectory.

📍

Port Said

The northern entrance of the Suez Canal where ships queue to enter the waterway.

🏘️

Jerusalem

On a clear approach, the dense urban sprawl and historic landmarks of the Holy City appear to the north.

Choose the left side for coastal views and to see the lush greenery of the Nile Delta. Morning flights are ideal as the sun will be behind you, providing clear lighting for photography of the Mediterranean coast.
