EVN → DXB
Which side of the plane to sit from Zvartnots International Airport (Yerevan) to Dubai International Airport (Dubai)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side is superior for this route primarily due to the stunning, close-up view of Mount Ararat immediately after takeoff, followed by the unique colors of Lake Urmia and a better angle for Dubai's coastal landmarks.

Mount Ararat
An unbeatable view of the legendary snow-capped peak and its smaller sibling, Little Ararat, right after takeoff.
Lake Urmia
A massive hypersaline lake in Iran known for its striking blue and reddish hues depending on water levels.
Persian Gulf Crossing
The transition from the jagged Iranian coastline to the turquoise waters of the Gulf.
The World Islands
During the descent into DXB, the artificial archipelago shaped like a world map is often visible.
Dubai Coastline
Spectacular views of the Burj Al Arab and the high-rises of Dubai Marina as the plane banks for landing.
Ensure you are on the right side for the departure from Yerevan; Mount Ararat is the highlight of the trip. For the best landing views in Dubai, try to sit in the forward section of the cabin to avoid wing obstruction of the Palm Jumeirah and World Islands. This side gets significant sun on southbound morning flights, so bring sunglasses.

Aragats Massif
The four peaks of Armenia's highest mountain are visible to the north shortly after departure.
Central Zagros Range
Dramatic views of the high-altitude fold-and-thrust belt running through central Iran.
Isfahan
On clear days, the sprawling historic city and its surrounding agricultural oases can be spotted.
Dasht-e Kavir Margins
The edges of the Great Salt Desert provide a stark contrast of colors and geological textures.
The left side is preferable for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh western sun. It offers excellent views of the rugged, snow-capped peaks of the Iranian interior. Keep an eye out for the shimmering salt flats that appear as bright white patches amidst the brown desert terrain.
