Ural Mountains
Aerial crossing of the ancient range marking the boundary between Asia and Europe shortly after takeoff.

Vast views of Europe's longest river and its complex system of reservoirs near Kazan.

For flights departing SVX in the morning, the left side provides the best lighting for photography as the sun remains to the south. Keep a close eye on the window about 30 minutes before landing to spot the diverse terrain of the Czech countryside. Seasonal winter flights offer stunning views of snow-capped forests in the Urals.

A high-altitude view of the Sverdlovsk region's industrial and cultural hub immediately after departure.
Kazan Panorama
Views of the capital of Tatarstan, where the Kremlin and various architectural landmarks are visible near the riverbanks.
Warsaw Surroundings
The flight path typically passes north of the Polish capital, offering views of the Vistula river and the Mazovian plains.
Prague Castle District
During a standard approach to Runway 24, the right side provides a magnificent view of the historic city center and Hradčany.
Sit on the right side if you want a higher chance of seeing the Prague city skyline and the Castle during the final approach. This side also avoids direct sun glare for most of the westbound journey, making it more comfortable for viewing without a window shade. Watch for the confluence of the Volga and Kama rivers near the mid-point of the flight.
