Our Recommendation
7.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior vantage point of the Indus River's winding path and the dramatic transition from the fertile plains of Sindh to the rugged Kirthar Mountain Range.

Right Side Highlights
7.5
💧

The Indus River

Continuous views of the majestic Indus River snaking through the landscape for much of the journey.

🏗️

Irrigation Networks

Glimpses of major canal systems and the Sukkur Barrage area, vital for the region's agriculture.

⛰️

Kirthar Mountains

Striking views of the limestone ridges and plateaus that form the western boundary of Sindh.

🌊

Arabian Sea Coast

As the plane banks for its final approach, the sparkling blue waters of the Arabian Sea come into view.

🚢

Port Qasim

Views of the industrial shipping lanes and the mangrove-heavy coastline near the mouth of the Indus.

For the best experience, book an afternoon or sunset flight to see the sun reflecting off the Indus River. Keep a keen eye out about 20-30 minutes before landing to see the stark contrast between the green river valley and the barren, jagged Kirthar peaks.

Left Side Highlights
6.8
🌾

Punjab Farmlands

Dense patchworks of agricultural land surrounding Faisalabad and the central Punjab region.

🏙️

Multan Outskirts

Passing east of the ancient 'City of Saints', visible as a dense urban cluster on the horizon.

🏜️

Thar Desert Fringe

The landscape shifts into the arid, sandy expanses of the desert as the flight moves into Lower Sindh.

✨

Karachi Cityscape

Vibrant urban sprawl and the lights of the Malir and Gulshan areas during evening descents.

The left side is preferable during morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the sun. It provides a better perspective of the vastness of the Indus river basin's agricultural reach and the eastern expansion of Karachi's residential districts.
