Sharjah Skyline
Immediate views of the dense urban layout of Sharjah and neighboring Dubai shortly after takeoff.
Gulf of Oman
A vast expanse of deep blue water as you cross from the Arabian Peninsula toward the Asian mainland.
Makran Coastal Line
The striking intersection of the arid Balochistan desert and the turquoise waters of the Arabian Sea.
Central Brahui Range
Dramatic limestone mountain ridges that characterize the approach into the Quetta valley.
Quetta Basin
The high-altitude plateau city of Quetta comes into view, surrounded by imposing peaks like Chiltan.
Book an early morning flight for the clearest visibility before the desert haze sets in. Sit several rows ahead of the wing to get an unobstructed view of the Makran coast as the plane makes landfall in Pakistan. Look north to catch glimpses of the Iranian mountains on the horizon.

UAE Interior Desert
Golden sand dunes stretching toward the Al Hajar Mountains shortly after departure.
Makran Mountain Range
Intricate, moon-like geological formations of the folded mountain belts in southern Balochistan.
Hingol National Park
Unique rock formations and desolate canyons that are part of the largest national park in Pakistan.
Bolan Pass
A historic mountain pass that connects the lower Indus plains with the Quetta plateau.
The right side is ideal for capturing the intense sun-drenched textures of the Balochistan desert. During winter months, you might see snow-capped peaks on the higher ridges of the Sulaiman Range to the east during the final approach. Use a polarizing filter if taking photos to cut through the atmospheric dust.
