Prague Panorama
The historic skyline of the Czech capital is often visible to the southeast shortly after climbing to altitude.
Moscow City Lights
On night flights, the massive illuminated grid of the Moscow metropolitan area creates a brilliant orange glow.
Kazan and the Volga
The historic Kazan Kremlin and the wide, sweeping bends of the Volga River.
Yekaterinburg Skyline
During the final descent into SVX, the high-rise buildings and lakes of Yekaterinburg are most prominent on this side.
The right side is ideal for catching the sunset on late afternoon flights. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes before landing for the best shots of the Ural foothills merging into the West Siberian Plain. For the best views of Prague, look out within the first 10 minutes of flight.

Sit on the left for the best morning light during eastward flights to avoid glare. Watch for the massive Kama River reservoir near Perm roughly 45 minutes before landing. In winter, this side offers spectacular views of the snow-covered Russian taiga.
