Arabian Sea
Expansive views of the deep blue northern Indian Ocean shortly after departing Karachi.
Musandam Fjords
The 'Norway of Arabia' showcases jagged limestone peaks and turquoise bays at the tip of Oman.
Dubai Skyline
On clear days, the Burj Khalifa and Dubai's skyscraper clusters are visible on the southern horizon.
Man-made Islands
The distinctive shapes of the Palm Jumeirah and The World islands can be spotted along the UAE coast.
Strait of Hormuz
A bird's-eye view of one of the world's busiest and most important maritime shipping lanes.
For the best experience, book a window seat on the left (usually 'A' seats). Morning flights are preferable as the sun will be positioned behind the aircraft, reducing glare and perfectly illuminating the UAE coastline and Musandam mountains. Keep your camera ready about 60 to 80 minutes into the flight for the best landmarks.

Offshore Oil Rigs
As you approach Dammam, watch for massive offshore platforms and occasional gas flares in the Gulf.
Kish Island

The right side (usually 'F' or 'L' seats) is ideal for afternoon flights, as the aircraft's body provides shade from the intense southern sun. This side offers better views of the unique geological formations along the Pakistani and Iranian coastlines. Watch for the 'Princess of Hope' rock formation shortly after takeoff from Karachi.
