Voronezh Reservoir
Known as the 'Voronezh Sea', this massive artificial lake is a landmark south of the flight path.
Oka-Don Plain
Vast stretches of geometric agricultural fields reflecting the seasonal colors of the Russian heartland.
Penza Panorama
A clear view of the city situated on the banks of the Sura River during the cruise phase.
Kuybyshev Reservoir
The breathtaking width of the Volga River, which appears more like an inland sea than a river.
Kazan Kremlin
On final approach, look for the white-stone walls and the turquoise minarets of the Qolsharif Mosque.
The right side is best for sunset flights, as the light reflects beautifully off the Volga and Don river basins. During winter, the frozen Volga creates a stark, dramatic white landscape that is best viewed from this side.

Massive iron ore excavations near Stary Oskol, visible as giant terraced craters.
Tambov Skyline
The winding Tsna River and the historic architecture of Tambov's city center.
Saransk
The Mordovia Arena and the distinct grid layout of the regional capital.
Sura River Valley
Dense forest patches and river meanders as the flight approaches Tatarstan.
Morning flights are ideal for the left side to avoid direct solar glare. Keep a close watch shortly after takeoff to spot the massive mining operations near Stary Oskol, which are some of the largest man-made structures on Earth.
