Caucasus Mountains
Breathtaking views of the Great Caucasus range, a natural border between Europe and Asia.
Mount Elbrus
Europe's highest peak is often visible as a massive, snow-covered dome to the west of the flight path.
Lake Urmia
A massive salt lake in northwestern Iran featuring unique mineral colors ranging from turquoise to deep red.
Zagros Fold Belt
Incredible 'caterpillar' ridges of the Zagros Mountains, showing some of the world's best structural geology.
Persian Gulf Coast
The dramatic transition from the rugged Iranian cliffs to the vibrant blue waters of the Gulf.
Sit on the right side for daytime flights to maximize the visibility of the Caucasus and Zagros mountains. Use a window seat forward of the wing to get unobstructed photos of Lake Urmia's salt crusts. In winter, the snow coverage on the peaks is most impressive.

Caspian Sea
Expansive views of the southern Caspian coastline as the flight path skirts the Iranian border.
Alborz Range
The northern slopes of the Alborz mountains providing a dramatic backdrop to the Iranian plateau.
Lusail & The Pearl
On approach to DOH, catch the shimmering architecture of Doha's newest districts and artificial islands.
Iranian High Plateau
A vast expanse of arid landscapes and ancient settlements visible through the clear desert air.
The left side is preferable for night flights to avoid the glare of the setting sun and to see the bright lights of Doha's West Bay and Lusail during arrival. If flying early morning, this side provides a softer sunrise light over the Caspian region.
