LCA → BAH
Which side of the plane to sit from Larnaca International Airport (Larnaca) to Bahrain International Airport (Bahrain)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers the most geographically significant landmarks, including the Dead Sea and the dramatic transitions of the Arabian Desert landscape before approaching Bahrain from the west.
The Dead Sea
The striking contrast of turquoise waters and white salt crusts at the lowest point on Earth.
An Nafud Desert
Endless waves of reddish-orange sand dunes creating mesmerizing patterns across northern Saudi Arabia.
Dammam and Jubail
Massive industrial complexes and the unique infrastructure of the Saudi oil industry along the coast.
King Fahd Causeway
The 25km bridge system connecting Saudi Arabia to Bahrain, visible during the final descent into BAH.
Bahraini Reclamations
The intricate man-made islands and luxury developments like Durrat Al Bahrain visible from the air.
Choose the right side for the iconic view of the Dead Sea, which typically appears 30 to 45 minutes into the flight. If arriving at sunset, this side provides a spectacular view of the sun dipping into the desert horizon.
Ayia Napa Coastline
Aerial views of the crystal-clear turquoise waters and rocky inlets of southeastern Cyprus immediately after takeoff.
Levantine Horizon
On clear days, views of the Lebanese coastline and the distant peaks of the Mount Lebanon range.
Kuwait City Skyline
The dense urban landscape and iconic towers visible as the flight transitions over the northern Persian Gulf.
Persian Gulf Traffic
Numerous tankers and cargo ships dotting the sea lanes leading into the major industrial ports of the region.
Sit on the left if you are flying an early morning route to keep the sun behind you. This side offers a better perspective of the Cypriot coast upon departure from Larnaca's runway 22.
