Malabar Coastline
Aerial views of the lush greenery and intricate backwaters of Kerala immediately after departure.
Al Hajar Mountains
The dramatic, jagged peaks of the Omani mountain range as the flight enters the Arabian Peninsula.
Rub' al Khali Edge
The vast, rolling orange dunes of the Empty Quarter desert visible during the mid-to-late stage of the flight.
King Fahd Causeway
The spectacular 25km bridge system connecting Bahrain and Saudi Arabia during the final descent.
Manama Skyline
Clear views of the Bahrain World Trade Center and Financial Harbour skyscrapers upon landing approach.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the southern sun. This side is particularly rewarding during the final 20 minutes of the flight when the plane typically banks over the Gulf, offering a perfect view of the causeway. Ensure your window is clean as the desert haze can sometimes reduce clarity.
