Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The Right Side provides an unparalleled sequence of geographical wonders, beginning with the majestic Alps and continuing through the folded ridges of the Zagros Mountains and the vibrant urban sprawls of the Persian Gulf.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏔️

The Alps

Iconic snow-covered peaks and glaciers of France and Switzerland shortly after takeoff from Paris.

⛰️

Zagros Mountains

Dramatic and unique folded rock formations across the Iranian plateau with intense geological colors.

🏙️

Persian Gulf Coast

Shimmering desert cities like Dubai and Abu Dhabi along with intricate offshore island developments.

🌊

Arabian Sea

Endless deep blue horizons and shipping lanes as the flight turns toward the Indian subcontinent.

🌲

Western Ghats

Verdant, mist-covered tropical hills visible during the final descent into Bangalore's airport.

For morning departures from CDG, the early light hits the Alps perfectly on the right. During night flights, the Persian Gulf section provides a spectacular display of urban lighting. On the final approach to Bangalore, the Right Side often captures the transition from the sea to the lush Western Ghats. Avoid seats directly over the wing for the clearest view of the Zagros range.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🏰

European Heartland

Overlooking the historic cities and rolling agricultural plains of Central and Eastern Europe.

🌊

Caspian Sea

The immense turquoise expanse of the world's largest inland sea bordering Azerbaijan and Turkmenistan.

🏔️

Caucasus Mountains

Sharp, snow-capped peaks and deep valleys stretching between the Black and Caspian Seas.

🏜️

Central Asian Steppe

Vast and mysterious arid landscapes and ancient silk road trade routes in Turkmenistan.

⛰️

Hindu Kush

Formidable mountain ranges with high-altitude vistas stretching across Afghanistan and Pakistan.

The left side is ideal for capturing the vastness of the Caspian Sea and the high-altitude peaks of the Hindu Kush. For daytime flights, the contrast between the arid Central Asian landscapes and the snow-capped mountains is striking. Ensure your window is clear of frost to photograph the Caucasus mountains, which appear midway through the journey.
