Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers spectacular views of the rugged Al Hajar Mountains in Oman and the dramatic fjords of the Musandam Peninsula before descending into Doha.
Search flights from IXE to DOH
Western Ghats
Lush, cloud-touched green ridges of the Indian coastline immediately after takeoff from Mangalore.
Al Hajar Mountains
The stark, jagged limestone peaks of Oman rising sharply from the desert floor.
Musandam Peninsula
The 'Norway of the Middle East,' featuring dramatic fjords and turquoise inlets carved into rugged rock.
Strait of Hormuz
One of the world's most important shipping lanes, often dotted with massive oil tankers.
The right side is superior for daytime flights. The transition from the green Ghats to the stark Omani mountains is visually stunning. Try to book a window seat away from the wing to fully capture the Musandam Peninsula's unique topography.

Arabian Sea Expanse
Infinite horizons of deep blue water shortly after departing from the Indian coast.
The Pearl-Qatar
The intricate man-made islands and luxury developments visible during the final approach to Doha.
Doha Corniche
A sweeping view of the crescent-shaped bay and the grassy parks lining the Qatari capital.
Lusail Stadium
The golden iconic stadium used for the World Cup final is often visible on the port side during northern arrivals.
Choose the left side for evening flights to avoid direct sunlight and to catch the illuminated Doha skyline if the flight path circles the city from the south. This side is generally better for seeing the man-made island structures near the airport.
