Sulaiman Range
The massive, craggy limestone peaks of the southern Hindu Kush foothills shortly after departure.
Strait of Hormuz
A clear view of the world's most strategic maritime chokepoint and the Iranian islands.
Gulf Coast Skylines
Distant views of the architectural marvels of Dubai, Abu Dhabi, or Doha depending on the specific airway.
Ad-Dahna Desert
A distinct 'river' of red sand dunes that connects the great deserts of the north and south.
Red Sea Horizon
The stunning turquoise coral reefs and deep blue waters of the Red Sea during the final approach.
This is the best side for evening flights to catch a spectacular sunset over the Arabian Desert. As you approach Jeddah, the right side usually provides the best view of the Red Sea coastline and the King Fahd's Fountain if the flight path tracks from the north. Keep your camera ready for the high-contrast 'red' sands of central Saudi Arabia.
Book Hotels in JeddahBalochistan Plateau
The rugged and arid lunar-like landscapes of southwestern Pakistan.
Gulf of Oman
Deep blue maritime vistas as the flight transitions from the Asian continent to the Arabian Peninsula.
Rub' al Khali
The northern fringes of the 'Empty Quarter', showcasing endless rolling longitudinal sand dunes.
Sarawat Mountains
The dark, jagged mountain range that runs parallel to the Red Sea coast near Jeddah.
Choose this side for softer lighting during morning flights. The early morning sun will illuminate the desert dunes of the Empty Quarter with high contrast, making the textures of the sand more visible. During the descent into Jeddah, look for the sharp transition from the brown Hijaz mountains to the urban sprawl.
