Ob River
Views of the massive Siberian river snaking through the landscape shortly after takeoff.
Kazakh Steppe
A vast expanse of central Asian plains that transition from green to gold depending on the season.
Tien Shan Peaks
Dramatic snow-capped mountain ranges that dominate the horizon as the flight nears the Kyrgyz border.
Alay Mountains
Stunning views of the rugged, high-altitude peaks that border the Fergana Valley to the south.
Sulayman-Too
A sacred five-peaked mountain and UNESCO site located in the heart of Osh, visible during descent.
Select the left side for morning flights to ensure the sun illuminates the mountain ranges rather than shining directly into your window. This side offers the best perspective of the Alay mountain walls during the approach to Osh. Look out for the transition from flat steppe to vertical peaks about 60-90 minutes into the flight.
