Which side of the plane to sit from Entebbe International Airport (Entebbe) to Hamad International Airport (Doha)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the dramatic Ethiopian Highlands, the coral-fringed Red Sea islands, and a spectacular approach into Doha's skyline.
Lake Victoria
Stunning views of the vast water and emerald islands immediately after takeoff from Entebbe.
Ethiopian Highlands
Fly over the 'Roof of Africa' featuring jagged peaks and deep, dramatic river gorges.

Arabian Plateau
The vast, desolate beauty of the central Saudi Arabian desert landscape.
Doha Skyline
Iconic views of The Pearl-Qatar and West Bay skyscrapers during the descent into Hamad International.
The Ethiopian Highlands are best viewed during morning or midday flights for maximum clarity. On arrival into Doha, the right side usually provides the best view of the city center and the Persian Gulf. Keep your camera ready during the first 10 minutes for Lake Victoria's shoreline.
White Nile
Follow the winding path of the Nile as it flows north through South Sudan.
The Sudd
Aerial view of one of the world's largest freshwater wetlands in South Sudan.
Red Sea Hills
Craggy, arid mountain ranges lining the western coast of the Red Sea.
Nubian Desert
Expansive views of the golden dunes and volcanic formations in eastern Sudan.
Yanbu Coastline
The industrial architecture and bright blue waters of the Saudi Arabian coast.
On late afternoon flights, the left side provides a front-row seat to spectacular sunsets over the Saharan and Arabian deserts. Use a map app to identify the Nile's intricate bends during the first half of the flight.
