PRG → UFA
Which side of the plane to sit from Václav Havel Airport Prague (Prague) to Ufa International Airport (Ufa)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers the most consistent urban views, including the Prague city center upon takeoff, the Warsaw skyline, and the northern outskirts of Moscow and Kazan.
Prague Historic Center
Aerial views of the Vltava River, Prague Castle, and the Old Town Square immediately after departure from PRG.
Warsaw Cityscape
As the flight crosses Poland, look for the Palace of Culture and Science and the modern skyscrapers of the Polish capital.
Moscow Distant Skyline
A glimpse of the Moscow International Business Center (Federation Tower) and the Seven Sisters as you pass south of the capital.
Volga-Oka Confluence
The dramatic meeting of the Volga and Oka rivers at Nizhny Novgorod, featuring the city's hilltop Kremlin.
Kazan Kremlin
The white stone walls of the UNESCO-listed Kazan Kremlin and the Kul Sharif Mosque visible as you cross the Volga.
Sit on the left side for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight and enjoy the best city views. Keep an eye out about 2.5 hours into the flight for the vast urban sprawl of Moscow. During the winter, the frozen Volga River provides a striking white contrast against the industrial cities.
Central Polish Plains
Neat geometric patterns of agricultural fields stretching across the Masovian Lowland.
Moscow Aviation Hub
Bird's-eye views of Domodedovo (DME) and Zhukovsky (ZIA) airports as the flight skirts the southern Moscow Oblast.
Kuybyshev Reservoir
The immense scale of the Volga River near Ulyanovsk, appearing more like an inland sea than a river.
Bashkortostan Taiga
The dense, dark forests of the Southern Urals transition as you approach Ufa, especially beautiful in autumn.
Belaya River Loops
The winding, serpentine path of the Belaya (Agidel) River as the plane begins its final descent into UFA.
Choose the right side for evening flights to witness the sunset over the Russian heartland. This side is particularly scenic during the final 30 minutes of flight when the rolling hills of the Ural foothills become prominent. Use a polarizing filter for photos to cut through the haze over the industrial regions of the Volga.
