JIB → HAH
Which side of the plane to sit from Djibouti-Ambouli Airport (Djibouti) to Prince Said Ibrahim International Airport (Moroni)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers the most dramatic geological transitions, from the salt lakes of Djibouti and the winding rivers of the Horn of Africa to the grand finale of Mount Karthala's volcanic crater upon arrival in Moroni.

Lake Assal
Visible shortly after takeoff from JIB, see the shimmering white salt pans of Africa's lowest point.
Shebelle River
Watch the intricate meanders of this vital waterway as it cuts through the arid landscapes of Ethiopia and Somalia.
Mount Karthala
The star of the route; a massive active shield volcano that dominates the island of Grande Comore.
Moroni Skyline
Views of the capital's unique architecture and the iconic Friday Mosque during the final descent into HAH.
The right side is essential for seeing the volcanic features of the Comoros. During the descent into HAH, the aircraft often banks in a way that provides a perfect view of Mount Karthala's caldera. Keep your camera ready as you cross the Somali border into the Indian Ocean for the river delta views.

Gulf of Aden
Stunning views of the deep blue waters and the coastal transition from Djibouti into northern Somalia.
Benadir Coast
Aerial perspective of the white sand beaches and the turquoise fringes along the Somali coastline near Mogadishu.
Indian Ocean Sunrise
On early morning flights, this side provides an unobstructed view of the sun rising over the vast expanse of the Indian Ocean.
Comoros Archipelago
Initial sightings of the smaller islands in the distance as the aircraft begins its descent toward Grande Comore.
Sit on the left for morning departures to avoid the direct glare of the sun while enjoying the coastal outlines of Somalia. This side is generally quieter visually until the final approach when the ocean colors become more vibrant.
