Russian Heartland
Clear views of the mosaic-like fields of the Voronezh and Volgograd regions during the first hour of flight.
Ustyurt Plateau Chinks
Spectacular views of the 'chinks' or dramatic limestone escarpments that define the edge of the plateau.
Caspian Lowlands
The rugged, arid landscape of the Caspian depression, featuring salt flats and unique geological discolorations.
Amu Darya River
On the descent into Bukhara, look for the vital Amu Darya river valley, a stark green contrast to the surrounding desert.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. The most dramatic scenery occurs mid-flight over the Ustyurt Plateau; have your camera ready for the white and pink limestone formations that look like alien landscapes.

Oka River Meanders
Shortly after takeoff from DME, watch for the winding curves of the Oka River through the lush Russian countryside.
Saratov and the Volga
Cruising over the massive Volga River, providing a grand perspective of the industrial and historical hub of Saratov.
Kazakh Steppe
Vast, seemingly endless stretches of the flat Kazakh plains, showing unique agricultural patterns and remote settlements.
Kyzylkum Desert
As you enter Uzbekistan, the landscape transitions into the red sands and rolling dunes of the Kyzylkum.
For morning flights, the left side will be quite sunny, so keep your window shade partially closed to avoid glare while looking for the Volga. In winter, look for the intricate patterns of frozen river tributaries across the Russian plains.
