Our Recommendation
8.2

Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides the most scenic experience by avoiding direct sun glare on this eastbound route while offering superior views of the Northern Ural mountain peaks and the intricate Ob River system.

Left Side Highlights
8.2
🏙️

Moscow Outskirts

Aerial views of the sprawling Moscow metropolitan area and the dense forests of the Podmoskovye region upon departure.

🌊

Volga River Crossing

A grand view of Russia's most famous river as it carves through the landscape near Nizhny Novgorod.

⛰️

Northern Urals

The dramatic geological transition from Europe to Asia featuring rugged, ancient mountain ridges.

🌲

Siberian Taiga

An endless green carpet of coniferous forest that defines the vast wilderness of Western Siberia.

💧

Ob River Basin

Spectacular patterns of the meandering Ob River and its many oxbow lakes shortly before descending into Tomsk.

This side is ideal for daytime flights to avoid the sun's glare, which will be mostly to the south. Keep your camera ready about 100-120 minutes into the flight for the best mountain views. In winter, the stark contrast of the dark Taiga against the white snow is breathtaking.

Right Side Highlights
7.5
🌾

Central Russian Upland

The diverse agricultural landscape and small villages of the Russian heartland early in the journey.

🚢

Kama River

Views of the Kama River's wide reservoirs and the industrial activity centered around the Perm region.

🏔️

Ural Foothills

The southern, more populated reaches of the Ural range with visible mining and industrial settlements.

🌫️

Vasyugan Swamp

Glimpse the southern edge of one of the world's largest wetlands, appearing as a complex mosaic of land and water.

🏙️

Tom River Valley

The scenic valley of the Tom River as the aircraft aligns for its final approach into Bogashevo Airport.

The right side is perfect for late afternoon flights if you enjoy golden hour light and sunsets over the Siberian plains. Be aware that during mid-day, the sun will be directly on this side, which can make photography difficult due to window reflections.
