MUX â UET
Which side of the plane to sit from Multan International Airport (Multan) to Quetta International Airport (Quetta)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side is the clear winner for its unparalleled views of the northern Sulaiman Range, including the legendary Takht-e-Sulaiman peak and dramatic geological folds.
Search flights from MUX to UET
Dera Ghazi Khan
A clear view of the city of DG Khan situated at the gateway between the plains and the mountains.
Takht-e-Sulaiman
The 'Throne of Solomon,' the highest peak of the Sulaiman Range, featuring a dramatic flat-topped profile.
Geological Skeletons
Stunning 'rib-like' geological folding and rock formations that look like a giant skeleton from the air.
Zarghun Mountains
The massive, rugged heights of the Zarghun Ghar range that dominate the northern horizon upon approach to Quetta.
The right side is best for afternoon flights to avoid direct sun glare and capture high-contrast photos of the mountain ridges. Watch for the dramatic change in terrain approximately 15 minutes after takeoff. This side provides the best view of the 'inverted' rock layers which are a geologist's dream.

South Punjab Farmlands
Lush green agricultural fields and circular irrigation patterns immediately after takeoff from Multan.
Indus River Basin
The sprawling, braided channels of the Indus River as it flows southward through the plains.
Arid Canyons
Deeply eroded canyons and dry riverbeds of the Balochistan plateau visible as you cross the provincial border.
Koh-i-Maran Range
Prominent limestone mountain peaks south of Quetta during the final descent into the valley.
Choose the left side for morning flights to enjoy the sunrise reflecting off the Indus River. During the winter months, look for occasional frost patterns on the desert landscape below. This side is also excellent for spotting the smaller, winding desert roads that connect remote Balochistan outposts.
