Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides a superior vantage point for the dramatic shift from the industrial Russian interior to the vast Caspian coastline.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏙️

St. Petersburg Panorama

Breathtaking takeoff views of the Neva River, the Hermitage, and the Gulf of Finland coastline.

🌊

Volga River Basin

Crossing the winding path of Europe's longest river as it snakes through the southern Russian plains.

🏭

Southern Industrial Hubs

Bird's-eye view of the sprawling industrial landscapes and power grids of the Voronezh and Rostov regions.

🌊

Caspian Sea Horizon

As the plane descends, enjoy the transition from land to the sparkling turquoise waters of the western Caspian.

Choose the left side for morning departures to capture the sunrise reflecting off the Russian river systems. It is also the best side for viewing the Absheron Peninsula coastline during the final descent into Lankaran. Avoid the wings for the best coastal views.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
🌳

Central Russian Upland

Aerial views of the expansive forests and agricultural heartlands of central and southern Russia.

🏔️

Greater Caucasus Peaks

Distant, majestic views of the snow-capped Caucasus range to the west as the plane enters Azerbaijani airspace.

⛰️

Talysh Mountains

Lush, green mountain slopes bordering the Iranian frontier, visible during the final approach path.

🍋

Subtropical Lowlands

The unique sight of tea plantations and citrus groves that define the Lankaran region's microclimate.

The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to enjoy the sunset over the Caucasus Mountains. Keep your camera ready during the descent for a view of the dense Hirkan National Park forests, which look especially vibrant in autumn.
