Aktau Cliffs
The unique limestone coastal formations of Kazakhstan immediately after takeoff.
Greater Caucasus Range
The massive, jagged wall of snow-capped mountains that separates Europe from Asia.
Mount Bazardüzü
The highest peak in Azerbaijan, often visible as a prominent feature on the mountain horizon.
Alazani Valley
The famous Georgian wine region, characterized by lush green vineyards and ancient churches.
Choose the right side for the most dramatic mountain scenery. The Greater Caucasus wall is visible for most of the flight over land. In winter and spring, the peaks are heavily snow-clad. Try to secure a window seat away from the wing for unobstructed views of the Alazani Valley as you approach Georgia.

Kura River
The winding path of Azerbaijan's primary river as it snakes through the arid central plains.
