Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides a front-row seat to the 'Roof of the World,' showcasing the dramatic Pamir Mountains and the distant, snow-capped giants of the Karakoram range.

Left Side Highlights
9.2
⛰️

Pamir Mountains

Witness the rugged, high-altitude terrain of Tajikistan, often referred to as the 'Roof of the World'.

❄️

Fedchenko Glacier

Catch a glimpse of one of the longest glaciers in the world outside of the polar regions.

🏔️

Karakoram Horizon

On clear days, the massive peaks of the Karakoram range, including K2, are visible on the distant horizon.

💧

Lake Sarez

A stunning, vibrant turquoise lake nestled deep within the dramatic valleys of the Pamirs.

🌾

Punjab Plains

The stark transition from the high mountains to the lush, green agricultural heartland of North India.

For the best photography, choose a morning flight to have the sun behind you while it illuminates the Pamir peaks. The most spectacular mountain views occur within the first 45-60 minutes of the flight. Be sure to look for the high-altitude glacial lakes which are particularly vivid in late summer and autumn.

Right Side Highlights
7.4
⛰️

Hindu Kush Range

The dramatic western extension of the Himalayas, bordering Afghanistan and Pakistan.

🏘️

Kabul Valley

Views of the high-altitude plateaus and rugged basins surrounding the Afghan capital.

🌊

Indus River

The legendary river winding through the plains as you cross from Pakistan into India.

🏜️

Thar Desert Fringes

Arid, sandy landscapes visible to the southwest during the descent toward Delhi.

🏙️

Delhi Metropolis

The sprawling urban expanse of the National Capital Region during the final approach.

The right side is preferable for afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. You will get excellent views of the Hindu Kush mountains as you head south. During the descent, keep an eye out for the vast contrast between the arid western terrain and the dense urban grid of Delhi.
