Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side provides unparalleled views of the Chatkal mountain range and the famous Kamchik Pass, offering a dramatic contrast between the flat Fergana Valley and the rugged peaks of the Western Tien Shan.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
⛰️

Chatkal Mountains

Breathtaking close-up views of the Western Tien Shan range, featuring jagged ridges and deep valleys.

🛣️

Kamchik Pass

The critical mountain pass and winding highway connecting the valley to the capital, visible snaking through the terrain.

❄️

Snow-Capped Peaks

High-altitude summits that remain white for much of the year, providing excellent photography opportunities.

💧

Charvak Reservoir

On certain northern flight paths, the turquoise waters of this large reservoir can be spotted in the distance.

📡

Tashkent TV Tower

A potential view of Central Asia's tallest structure as the plane aligns with the runway for landing.

The right side is the premier choice for morning flights when the sun illuminates the northern mountain faces perfectly. Keep your camera ready shortly after takeoff as the plane quickly reaches the mountain barrier. Seasonal snow cover in winter and spring makes the Chatkal range particularly photogenic.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🏙️

Fergana Cityscape

A bird's eye view of the Fergana urban layout and its surrounding green belts immediately after takeoff.

🚜

Fergana Valley Orchards

Vast agricultural mosaics consisting of cotton fields and fruit orchards that dominate the valley floor.

🏔️

Alay Range

Distant, hazy views of the high mountain peaks to the south marking the border with Kyrgyzstan.

🏢

Tashkent South

Aerial perspective of the capital's southern residential districts and industrial zones during the final descent.

Choose the left side for late afternoon flights to avoid the harsh glare of the sun. This side is better for observing the vast scale of the Fergana Valley's agricultural development. Watch for the Syr Darya river reflecting the light in the distance during clear weather.
