DXBPRG

Our Recommendation
8.7

Left Side of the Plane

The left side is superior for this route as it typically offers a breathtaking view of the Dubai coastline and the Palm Jumeirah upon takeoff, followed by better sun positioning for photography and prime views of the Prague city center during the descent.

Left Side Highlights
8.7
🏙️

Dubai Coastline

Aerial views of the Burj Al Arab and the Palm Jumeirah immediately after departure from DXB.

🏜️

Mesopotamian Basin

The historic landscape of Iraq, featuring the confluence of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers.

🏔️

Taurus Mountains

Rugged, snow-dusted limestone peaks and deep valleys across Southern Turkey.

⛪

Balkan Peninsula

A bird's-eye view of the rolling hills and historical cities of Bulgaria and Serbia.

🏰

Prague Old Town

On the standard approach to Runway 24, the left side provides views of the Vltava River and the city's spires.

For the best experience, book a seat forward of the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the Dubai skyline. Most DXB-PRG flights depart in the morning; the left side will be in the shade for the majority of the flight, preventing glare and making it much easier to take high-quality photos of the Turkish and European terrain.

Right Side Highlights
7.4
🌊

The Persian Gulf

Expansive views of the turquoise waters and the busy shipping lanes of the Gulf.

⛰️

Zagros Mountains

The dramatic, folded mountain ridges of Western Iran visible to the north across the water.

🌉

The Bosphorus

The narrow strait dividing Europe and Asia, visible if the flight takes a more northerly track over Istanbul.

🌲

Carpathian Mountains

Dense forests and high ridges as the flight crosses from Romania into Slovakia.

🏘️

Bohemian Countryside

The charming mosaic of small Czech villages and agricultural fields during the final approach.

The right side is excellent for spotting the Iranian mountain ranges early in the flight. However, be aware that on morning departures, this side will face direct sunlight for several hours, which can make the cabin hot and cause significant glare on the window. Keep the window shade partially down until reaching Central Europe.
