Northern Ural Mountains
Sharp peaks and high-altitude tundra marking the geographic boundary between Europe and Asia.
Verkhoyansk Range
Spectacular views of one of the world's coldest inhabited regions, featuring jagged, snow-capped ridges.
Klyuchevskaya Sopka
The highest active volcano in Eurasia, often seen emitting plumes of steam against the blue sky.
Magadan Coastline
The wild, uninhabited northern shores of the Sea of Okhotsk with dramatic cliffs and deep bays.
Aurora Borealis
On night flights during winter months, this side offers the best chance to witness the Northern Lights.
For the most dramatic views of the Kamchatka volcanic chain, sit on the left side and stay alert during the final 60-90 minutes of the flight. If traveling in winter, keep your window shade open during the middle of the flight to potentially spot the Aurora over Northern Siberia.

Siberian Taiga
Endless expanses of the world's largest forest, crisscrossed by frozen rivers in winter.
Lena River Basin
One of the longest rivers in the world, visible with its complex network of islands and braided channels.
Sea of Okhotsk
A vast maritime crossing often filled with floating pack ice during the spring months.
Avachinsky Volcano
One of the 'home' volcanoes of Petropavlovsk, visible during the final descent and landing pattern.
Siberian Sunset
On evening departures from Moscow, this side enjoys a prolonged and vibrant sunset over the horizon.
The right side is ideal for capturing the sunset during the early stages of an evening flight. On approach to Yelizovo, this side often provides a closer view of the southern volcanic group, including Avachinsky and Koryaksky, depending on the wind direction and landing runway.
