Search flights from LHE to DOH
Sulaiman Range
Observe the prehistoric-looking ridges and folded rock formations of the Balochistan plateau early in the flight.
Makran Coastal Range
A stunning display of lunar-like landscapes and mud volcanoes visible along the southwestern Pakistani coast.
Iranian Coastline
Clear views of the jagged cliffs and salt domes along the southern coast of Iran near the Strait of Hormuz.
Strait of Hormuz
Watch the world's busiest oil shipping lane, filled with cargo ships and tankers navigating the narrow passage.
Lusail City
See the futuristic Lusail Stadium and the burgeoning northern skyline of Qatar's newest city during the approach.
The right side is the winner for geological enthusiasts. The transition from the rugged mountains of Pakistan to the deep blues of the Persian Gulf is breathtaking. For the best experience, book a window seat away from the wing to fully capture the vast desert and sea expanses. Morning flights offer the best lighting for photography of the Iranian coast.

Indus River Delta
View the intricate network of the Indus River as it snakes through the southern plains of Pakistan toward the Arabian Sea.
Gwadar Port
Spot the distinctive hammerhead-shaped peninsula of Gwadar, a strategic deep-sea port on the Arabian Sea.
UAE Coastline
On clear days, catch a glimpse of the distant Dubai skyline, including the Burj Khalifa, as the flight skirts the northern UAE.
The Pearl-Qatar
During the final descent into Doha, look for the iconic man-made island complex featuring luxury marinas and residential towers.
Gulf of Oman Sunrise
If on an early morning flight, enjoy the sun reflecting off the calm waters of the Gulf of Oman.
The left side is excellent for afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. As you approach Hamad International Airport, this side often provides the best view of the West Bay skyline and the Pearl-Qatar, depending on the wind direction and landing pattern (usually Runway 34L/R).
