Which side of the plane to sit from Domodedovo International Airport (Moscow) to Andizhan Airport (Andizhan)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers superior lighting for the dramatic transition from the Russian plains to the rugged Tien Shan mountains, avoiding the direct glare of the southern sun during typical daytime flights.

Moscow Southern Suburbs
Clear views of the sprawling metropolitan expansion and the dense forests of the Moscow Oblast shortly after takeoff.
Volga River Meanders
A magnificent view of Europe's longest river as the flight path crosses near the Samara Bend, showcasing massive industrial dams.
Aral Sea Basin
In the distance, the hauntingly beautiful salt flats and remnants of the northern Aral Sea appear as shimmering white patches.
Tien Shan Peaks
Spectacular views of the snow-capped Western Tien Shan mountains as the aircraft begins its descent into the Fergana Valley.
Fergana Oasis
The stark contrast of lush green agricultural grids appearing suddenly against the surrounding arid brown landscape.
Book a window seat on the left for the best photography conditions; since the flight heads Southeast, the sun will be on the right side for most of the day, leaving the left side with soft, even light. The most dramatic views occur in the final 45 minutes of the flight as the mountains of Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan come into view. In winter, the snow cover on the Kazakh steppe provides a stunning, minimalist geometric landscape.

DME Airport Complex
An excellent overview of the Domodedovo runways and terminal architecture immediately after a southern departure.
Black Earth Region
The rich, dark soil of Russia's agricultural heartland creates a unique patchwork of fields during the first hour of flight.
Kyzylkum Desert
Vast stretches of reddish sand dunes and desert pavement extending toward the horizon across central Uzbekistan.
Syr Darya River
The lifeblood of Central Asia, this ancient river is visible as a winding blue ribbon cutting through the desert landscape.
Pamir-Alay Range
On clear days, the distant, towering peaks of the Pamir-Alay mountains are visible to the south during the final approach.
The right side is perfect for capturing sunsets if you are on a late afternoon flight, as the sun will sink directly into the horizon over the desert. However, be prepared for intense heat and glare through the window during midday journeys. During the descent into Andizhan, look for the complex irrigation networks that have sustained this region for centuries.
