Himalayan Horizon
Distant views of the high peaks of the Himalayas while traversing northern India.
Indus River
The massive, winding river system that serves as the lifeblood of Pakistan.
Zagros Mountains
Incredible folded rock formations and snow-capped ridges across the Iranian plateau.
Mesopotamian Basin
The fertile plains between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, the cradle of civilization.
Amman Cityscape
A sweeping view of the hilly 'White City' as the plane aligns for landing at Queen Alia.
The right side is highly recommended for daytime flights to capture the geological complexity of Iran's mountain ranges. Use a high shutter speed for photos of the Zagros folds to compensate for engine vibration. Clear skies are most common in autumn and spring for the best visibility of the Indus and Mesopotamian rivers.
Book Hotels in Amman
Andaman Sea
Early flight views of the turquoise waters and coastal fringes of Myanmar.
Deccan Plateau
Aerial perspective of India's vast agricultural heartland and rural settlements.
Arabian Desert
Expansive golden sand dunes and desolate beauty of the northern Arabian Peninsula.
Gulf of Aqaba
Potential views of the northernmost tip of the Red Sea during the final descent phases.
Choose the left side for spectacular sunset views if you are on an afternoon departure. It provides the best perspective of the changing colors over the Arabian sands. Avoid seats directly over the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the desert patterns.
