Right Side Highlights
8.8
🏔️

Western Tien Shan

Stunning aerial perspectives of the snow-capped Western Tien Shan mountains shortly after takeoff.

🏞️

Ugam-Chatkal Park

Aerial views of the deep valleys and protected alpine ecosystems of Uzbekistan's largest national park.

🏔️

Greater Chimgan Peak

Look for the iconic 3,309m peak of Greater Chimgan, a major landmark of the Tashkent region.

🌊

Charvak Reservoir

The bright turquoise waters of the Charvak Reservoir can often be spotted nestled between the mountains.

🗼

Tashkent Skyline

On final approach, enjoy views of the Tashkent TV Tower and the modern skyline of the capital city.

The right side is the 'mountain side' for this route. For the best photography, take a morning flight when the sun illuminates the north-facing slopes. Keep your camera ready shortly after takeoff, as the flight reaches its peak scenic altitude very quickly due to the short distance.

🏙️

Namangan Cityscape

Fergana Valley Basins

The vast agricultural tapestry of the Fergana Valley with its intricate irrigation networks.

The sprawling residential districts of eastern Tashkent as the aircraft aligns with the runway.

Choose the left side for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh glare of the sun. This side is excellent for seeing the transition from the fertile valley floor to the high mountain ridges within the first 15 minutes of the flight.
