Opt for a morning flight to keep the sun behind you for better photography. During the Harmattan season (December to February), visibility can be reduced by Saharan dust, so late afternoon flights might offer slightly better clarity as the dust settles. Request a seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat haze.
