Which side of the plane to sit from Krasnodar Pashkovsky International Airport (Krasnodar) to Manas International Airport (Bishkek)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the dramatic geological transitions, from the distant peaks of the Caucasus during departure to the breathtaking snow-capped Tian Shan mountains on arrival in Kyrgyzstan.
Search flights from KRR to FRU
Greater Caucasus Range
Distant views of the majestic snow-capped peaks marking the border between Europe and Asia.
Mangystau Peninsula
The surreal, moon-like rock formations and white chalk cliffs of Western Kazakhstan.
Kyzylkum Desert
The 'Red Sand' desert stretching toward the horizon with its unique golden-red dunes.
Tian Shan Mountains
The 'Celestial Mountains' appearing as a massive wall of ice and rock during the descent.
Kyrgyz Ala-Too Range
Stunningly close views of the jagged peaks that border the Chuy Valley and Bishkek.
For the most dramatic experience, choose a window seat on the right. During morning flights, the sun illuminates the Tian Shan mountains perfectly for photography. Watch closely during the final 30 minutes of the flight as the descent into Manas Airport brings the alpine ridges into sharp focus.

Kuban Steppe
Vast, organized agricultural patterns and fertile plains of the Krasnodar Krai.
North Caspian Coastline
The shallow, turquoise-tinted waters of the northern Caspian Sea near the Volga delta.
Ustyurt Plateau Edge
The stark, high-altitude desert wasteland of Western Kazakhstan.
Syr Darya River
One of Central Asia's great rivers carving a green path through the arid landscape.
Sit toward the front of the cabin to avoid wing obstruction when viewing the Syr Darya. This side is better if you prefer the subtle textures of the great steppe and the intricate river systems of southern Kazakhstan.
