Mount Ararat
The dormant compound volcano and national symbol of Armenia, visible in its full glory just minutes after departing Yerevan.
Upper Mesopotamia
The vast, arid plains of the Fertile Crescent stretching across the borders of Turkey and Syria.
Anti-Lebanon Mountains
The rugged mountain range that forms a natural border between Syria and Lebanon, featuring stark limestone ridges.
Mount Hermon
The highest point in the region, often covered in snow, marking the southern end of the Anti-Lebanon range.
Beirut Suburbs
A glimpse of the dense urban sprawl of southern Beirut and the surrounding foothills during the final descent.
Book an early morning flight for the best chance of cloud-free views of Mount Ararat. During the winter, the contrast of the snow-capped peaks against the desert floor is particularly striking. Avoid wing seats (mid-cabin) for an unobstructed view of the peaks.

Lake Van
The largest lake in Turkey, known for its intense turquoise soda waters and volcanic surroundings.
Euphrates River
The winding path of one of Western Asia's most historic rivers as it carves through the Anatolian plateau.
Taurus Mountains
The southern ridges of the Taurus range, offering complex geological formations and deep valleys.
Mediterranean Coast
As the plane turns for its final approach, enjoy wide vistas of the deep blue Mediterranean Sea and the Lebanese shoreline.
Yerevan Cityscape
A clear view of the 'Pink City' and the Hrazdan River gorge immediately after rotation from EVN.
The right side is ideal for capturing the turquoise hues of Lake Van mid-flight. For the landing in Beirut, this side provides a great view of the sea as the aircraft typically maneuvers over the water before touching down. Afternoon flights offer the best lighting for the Turkish landscape.
