🌊

The Ravi River

Excellent views of the Ravi River's winding path shortly after departing from Lahore.

💧

Indus River Confluence

A spectacular view of the massive Indus River as it begins to dominate the landscape on the way south.

🌉

Sukkur Barrage

The monumental 1932 British-era barrage with its 66 arches is clearly visible during the descent into Sukkur.

🏗️

Ayub & Lansdowne Bridges

Striking architectural views of the historic railway and road bridges spanning the Indus River gorge.

🏝️

Sadh Belo Temple

The beautiful Hindu temple complex situated on an island in the middle of the Indus River near the city.

Sit on the right for the most iconic views of Sukkur's river landmarks. Afternoon flights are particularly scenic on this side as the sun illuminates the river and the barrage. During the descent, keep your camera ready for the Sukkur Barrage and the historic bridges, which are best seen from this side as the plane aligns with the runway.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🏙️

Lahore Urban Sprawl

Panoramic views of the Walled City and the expanding suburban developments of Lahore immediately after takeoff.

🌾

Sutlej River Basin

Visuals of the seasonal Sutlej River and the lush agricultural patchwork of the lower Punjab plains.

🏜️

Cholistan Fringe

Distant views of the golden sands of the Cholistan Desert appearing on the eastern horizon during the cruise phase.

The left side is ideal for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight and glare. It provides a better perspective of the vast agricultural heartland of Pakistan. Keep an eye out for the distinct transition from the dense green of central Punjab to the more arid landscapes of northern Sindh as the flight progresses.
