Which side of the plane to sit from Tashkent International Airport (Tashkent) to Fergana International Airport (Fergana)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers the most dramatic views of the Western Tien Shan mountain ranges, including the snow-capped Chatkal and Pskem peaks, which dominate the horizon for most of the short flight.
Chatkal Mountain Range
Dramatic views of the rugged peaks and deep valleys of the Chatkal range, a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Pskem Mountains
Visibility of the high, often snow-covered Pskem range stretching towards the Kyrgyz border.
Tashkent Outskirts
A clear view of the expanding eastern suburbs of Tashkent and the Chirchiq river valley immediately after takeoff.
Fergana Valley Entrance
The lush, green patchwork of the Fergana Valley basin as the plane descends toward Fergana city.
Book a window seat on the left for morning flights to see the sunlight hitting the western slopes of the Tien Shan. The flight is very short (under an hour), so keep your camera ready from the moment you reach cruising altitude. Look for the contrast between the dry mountain slopes and the irrigated valley floor.
Kurama Range
Views of the southern Kurama mountains which form the natural border between Uzbekistan and Tajikistan.
Kamchik Pass
Aerial perspective of the vital A373 highway snaking through the high-altitude mountain pass connecting the valley to the capital.
Angren Industrial Zone
Visible mining operations and industrial landscapes near the city of Angren at the foot of the mountains.
Syr Darya Basin
Distant views of the vast Syr Darya river basin and the southern plains of the valley near the Tajik border.
The right side is preferable for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh glare of the sun. It provides an excellent view of the engineering feat that is the Kamchik Pass road and rail tunnels. As you approach Fergana, you can see the dense urban clusters of Kokand and Margilan in the distance.
