Which side of the plane to sit from Fergana International Airport (Fergana) to Kazan International Airport (Kazan)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side is superior for its immediate proximity to the dramatic Chatkal mountain ranges after takeoff and the expansive views of the Kama River system upon the descent into Kazan.
Chatkal Range
Spectacular snow-capped peaks of the Western Tien Shan mountains immediately after takeoff.
Shardara Reservoir
The bright turquoise waters of this massive reservoir on the border of Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan.
Kazakh Steppe
Thousands of miles of untouched golden grasslands with occasional nomadic settlements visible.
Mugodzhary Hills
The low, ancient rocky ridges that form the southernmost tip of the Ural Mountain range.
Kama-Volga Confluence
The dramatic meeting of two of Europe's largest rivers shortly before landing at Kazan.
The right side offers the best lighting for photography on morning flights. For the best view of the Tien Shan mountains, look out within the first 20 minutes of departure. Seats forward of the wing are highly recommended to avoid engine heat haze obstructing the mountain views.
Fergana City Grid
Aerial view of the city's unique radiating street patterns and lush green parks during departure.
Syr Darya River
Glittering views of Central Asia's second-longest river as it winds through the arid plains.
Kyzylkum Desert
Expansive vistas of red sand dunes and unique desert textures across northern Uzbekistan.
Russian Steppe Farmland
Geometric patchworks of agricultural fields as the route enters the Orenburg region.
Kazan Kremlin
A glimpse of the historic white-stone fortress and Kul Sharif Mosque if the flight circles from the west.
Sit on the left if you prefer desert geometry and hope for a western approach into Kazan for city views. Afternoon flights on this side may experience significant sun glare, so keep the window shade handy during the middle of the flight.
