Which side of the plane to sit from Dabolim Airport (Goa) to Domodedovo International Airport (Moscow)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the high-altitude Hindu Kush mountain range and the dramatic transition from the Indian subcontinent to the Russian heartland, all while staying in the shade during the afternoon sun.

Hindu Kush Mountains
Spectacular, snow-capped peaks of the Afghan and Tajik highlands stretching across the horizon.
Indus River
The massive, winding river system of Pakistan carving through the arid landscape below.
Kyzylkum Desert
The vast 'Red Sand' desert of Uzbekistan showcasing unique geological formations and dunes.
Volga River Basin
The winding silver thread of Europe's longest river as the flight enters Central Russia.
The right side is the 'cool' side for this northbound flight, avoiding direct sun. For the best views of the Hindu Kush, try to stay awake approximately 3 hours into the flight. If traveling in winter, the snow cover over Kazakhstan and Russia is particularly striking from this side.

Goa Coastline
Aerial views of the Arabian Sea and the white sand beaches of North Goa immediately after takeoff.
Rann of Kutch
The expansive, white salt marshes of Gujarat visible as the flight heads north into the border regions.
Caspian Sea Edge
The western horizon reveals the blue expanse of the world's largest inland body of water.
Moscow Skyline
On final approach to DME, the southern residential districts and dense birch forests surrounding the city.
Ideal for sunset views if departing Goa in the late afternoon. However, be prepared for intense sun glare and cabin heat during the midday portion of the journey. Keep your window shade down during the desert crossings to keep the seat cool.
