JED → YNB
Which side of the plane to sit from King Abdulaziz International Airport (Jeddah) to Prince Abdulmohsin Bin Abdulaziz Airport (Yenbo)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a spectacular front-row seat to the Red Sea coastline, offering views of vibrant coral reefs and the stark contrast between the deep blue water and the desert sands.

Red Sea Coastline
Stunning views of the crystalline turquoise waters bordering the Saudi Arabian coast.
Coral Reef Systems
Intricate and colorful coral formations visible through the clear shallow waters.
KAUST Campus
The sprawling, modern architectural complex of King Abdullah University of Science and Technology.
Yanbu Industrial Port
Aerial view of the massive tankers and industrial infrastructure of one of the world's largest oil shipping hubs.
Coastal Lagoons
Beautiful natural lagoons and sandbars that dot the shoreline north of Jeddah.
Choose a window seat on the left for morning flights to see the reefs clearly without the afternoon sun's glare. This side is also superior for sunset views if flying in the late evening, as the sun dips into the Red Sea.

Jeddah Urban Sprawl
The dense urban layout of Jeddah, including the expanding northern districts and the Kingdom Tower site.
Sarawat Mountains
The distant, rugged peaks of the Hejaz mountain range rising from the Tihamah coastal plain.
Rabigh City
A clear view of the industrial city and its large refinery complexes midway through the flight.
Arabian Desert Patterns
Intricate geometric patterns formed by wind and erosion on the desert floor inland.
The right side is best for late afternoon flights, as the sun will be behind the plane, perfectly illuminating the textures of the Sarawat mountains to the east. Avoid this side during the morning to prevent harsh sunlight and cabin heat.
