Which side of the plane to sit from Sialkot Airport (Sialkot) to Kuwait International Airport (Kuwait)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior vantage point for the dramatic mountain ranges of Balochistan and a more comprehensive view of the Kuwaiti coastline and Bubiyan Island during the final descent.
Sulaiman Mountain Range
Witness the rugged, arid peaks and deep valleys of the Sulaiman mountains shortly after departing Pakistani airspace.
Makran Coastal Range
Stunning views of the moon-like geological formations and white clay cliffs along the Balochistan coastline.
The Persian Gulf
Aerial perspective of the turquoise waters contrasting with the deep blue shipping lanes as you cross from the Gulf of Oman.
Bubiyan Island
Clear views of Kuwait's largest island, showcasing its uninhabited salt marshes and coastal lagoons upon approach.
Kuwait City Skyline
Get a panoramic view of the Kuwait Towers and the Al Hamra Tower as the plane banks toward Kuwait International Airport.
The right side is ideal for morning flights as the sun will be behind you, highlighting the textures of the Balochistan mountains. During descent, this side provides the most iconic views of the Kuwait City skyline and the 'Grand Subiya Bridge' if the approach is from the north.
Indus River Basin
View the sprawling green agricultural lands and the intricate network of canals that define the Punjab region of Pakistan.
Karachi Coastal Glimpse
If following a southern corridor, look out for the massive urban sprawl of Karachi meeting the Arabian Sea.
Persian Gulf Oil Rigs
Observe the numerous offshore oil platforms and tankers dotting the southern part of the Persian Gulf.
UAE Night Lights
On evening flights, catch the distant glow of Dubai and Abu Dhabi's massive infrastructure projects along the horizon.
The left side is preferable for night flights to see the dense lighting of coastal cities in the UAE and Saudi Arabia. During the day, sit here for views of the Indus River delta's unique geography where it meets the sea.
