Which side of the plane to sit from Sukkur Airport (Sukkur) to Moenjodaro Airport (Moenjodaro)?

Our Recommendation
7.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side is preferred primarily for the final approach, offering a direct view of the UNESCO World Heritage ruins of Moenjodaro and the distant Kirthar mountain range silhouette.

Right Side Highlights
7.5
🏛️

Moenjodaro Ruins

The 5,000-year-old Indus Valley Civilization site, including the iconic Buddhist Stupa and the Great Bath area.

🏔️

Kirthar Range

On clear days, the rugged ridges of the Kirthar Mountains are visible on the western horizon.

🏘️

Sindhi Villages

A bird's-eye view of traditional rural settlements and the unique circular layout of some local homesteads.

The right side is essential for seeing the archaeological site just before touchdown. As the flight is extremely short (approx. 20-30 minutes), keep your camera ready from the moment the descent begins. Mid-afternoon sun creates shadows that better define the ancient brick walls of the ruins.

Left Side Highlights
6.2
🌊

Sukkur Barrage

Visible shortly after takeoff, this massive 1930s-era irrigation structure spans the mighty Indus River.

🏜️

Rohri Hills

Limestone plateaus that are rich in archaeological history, including ancient flint quarries visible near Sukkur.

🌾

Indus River Basin

Lush agricultural greenery and a network of canals that form the backbone of Sindh's farming economy.

Sit on the left for the best views of the Sukkur cityscape and the Lansdowne Bridge during the initial climb. Early morning flights are ideal as the rising sun illuminates the river's surface and the green fields without too much haze.
