Our Recommendation
9.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side of the aircraft offers a premier vantage point for the most dramatic landscapes on this route, specifically the massive Himalayan range and the high-altitude peaks of Central Asia.

Right Side Highlights
9.2
🌊

Irrawaddy Delta

The vast, intricate river network of Myanmar as the flight crosses into mainland Asia.

🏔️

The Himalayas

Unmatched panoramic views of the world's highest snow-capped peaks to the north.

🏔️

Tien Shan Range

Known as the 'Celestial Mountains,' these peaks offer stunning glaciers and high-altitude lakes.

🏜️

Kyzylkum Desert

The striking red sands and ancient caravan routes of the Uzbekistan desert landscape.

🏞️

Volga River

The majestic, winding path of Russia's most famous river as it cuts through the heartland.

The right side is essential for mountain lovers. For the best views of the Himalayas and Tien Shan, book a flight that traverses Central Asia during daylight hours. High-altitude sun can be intense, so keep your window shade partially lowered between sightings to reduce glare. Look for the Aral Sea remnants about 8 hours into the flight.

🏝️

Andaman Islands

Emerald green islands and coral reefs visible early in the flight over the Andaman Sea.

🇮🇳

Indian Subcontinent

Dense urban clusters and the sprawling landscape of the Indian interior.

🌊

Caspian Sea

The western shoreline of the world's largest inland body of water near Azerbaijan.

🏔️

Caucasus Foothills

Distant views of the rugged mountain terrain that forms the natural border between Europe and Asia.

🌇

Moscow Outskirts

The transition from the deep Russian taiga to the dense urban periphery of the capital.

Choose the left side for sunset views if departing Singapore in the late afternoon. This side also offers a better perspective of the Caspian Sea's western oil rigs and coastal cities. On descent into DME, it often provides a superior view of the sprawling Moscow suburban development.
