Our Recommendation
8.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side provides the most dramatic views of the Indus River's meandering path and the stark contrast between the lush, irrigated Sindh plains and the surrounding arid terrain.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🐍

Indus River Meanders

The lifeblood of the region, the Indus River is clearly visible as it snakes through the Sindh province towards the sea.

🌾

Indus Basin Greenery

A striking visual contrast where irrigation canals transform the desert into a patchwork of vibrant green agricultural fields.

🏗️

Sukkur & Guddu Barrages

Massive colonial-era and modern engineering marvels used for water distribution visible as the flight tracks southwest.

🏙️

Hyderabad Urban Sprawl

Views of Pakistan's historic city of Hyderabad and the nearby Kotri Barrage before the final approach into Karachi.

The right side is best for daytime flights to capture the intricate canal systems. Avoid this side during late afternoon to prevent sun glare. For the best view of the Indus River, look out about 30-40 minutes before landing.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
🏜️

Thar Desert Panoramas

Expansive views of the Great Indian Desert with its characteristic rolling sand dunes and arid vegetation.

🏰

Pink City Proximity

Early in the flight, catch glimpses of the Aravalli Range and the outskirts of Jaipur's historic landscape.

✨

Indo-Pak Border Lights

On night flights, the high-intensity floodlights along the international border create a visible orange line across the earth.

Choose the left side for sunset flights to witness the desert glow in golden hues. At night, this side is superior for spotting the unique illuminated border fence that stretches for miles.
