The Pearl-Qatar
Stunning view of the man-made island's intricate circular design and luxury marinas.
An Nafud Desert
Expansive views of the reddish sand dunes and vast desert patterns of northern Saudi Arabia.
Mount Hermon
The majestic, often snow-capped peaks of the Anti-Lebanon range marking the border regions.
Lebanon Mountains
Rugged limestone ridges and steep green valleys characteristic of the Lebanese landscape.
Beirut Coastline
A panoramic view of the Beirut peninsula, the Corniche, and the port as the plane aligns with the runway.
The right side is superior for the approach into Beirut. Aircraft usually fly past the city and turn back over the sea, offering a perfect angle of the coastline against the mountains. Morning flights offer the clearest views before the afternoon coastal mist sets in.
