Tiran Island
Crystal clear views of the Straits of Tiran and the coral reef systems immediately after takeoff from Sharm.
Aqaba & Eilat
A perfect aerial view of the dual port cities at the northernmost point of the Gulf of Aqaba.
Wadi Rum
The iconic 'Valley of the Moon' with its monolithic red sandstone mountains and vast sandy plains.
Petra Region
The rugged Sharah Mountains which hide the ancient Nabataean city of Petra within their deep canyons.
Lisan Peninsula
The unique 'tongue' of land that divides the northern and southern basins of the Dead Sea.
The right side is superior for afternoon flights as the sun illuminates the red sands of Wadi Rum and the Moab mountains. Keep your camera ready shortly after takeoff for the stunning contrast between the Red Sea and the desert mountains.
