Which side of the plane to sit from Tashkent International Airport (Tashkent) to Krasnodar Pashkovsky International Airport (Krasnodar)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a superior vantage point for viewing the majestic Greater Caucasus Mountains as you approach Krasnodar, along with the deep blue expanse of the southern Caspian Sea.
Tashkent Cityscape
View the sprawling urban layout of the Uzbek capital immediately after departure.
Kyzylkum Desert
Witness the vast, undulating red sands of one of Central Asia's largest deserts.
Southern Caspian Sea
Aerial views of the world's largest inland body of water as the flight crosses from Asia to Europe.
Greater Caucasus Range
Spectacular views of snow-capped peaks forming the natural border between Russia and Georgia.
Mount Elbrus
On clear days, the twin peaks of Europe's highest mountain are visible in the distance to the southwest.
Sit on the left for the best mountain views during the final third of the flight. For early morning departures, the sun will be behind you, providing excellent lighting for photos of the Caucasus. If flying in winter, the mountains are particularly striking when fully covered in snow.
Tian Shan Fringes
Glimpse the western edges of the 'Celestial Mountains' shortly after take-off.
Aral Sea Basin
See the stark, salt-crusted remains and the dramatic ecological shift of the former Aral Sea bed.
Ustyurt Plateau
Observe the harsh, alien-like limestone formations and cliffs of this high-altitude desert.
Volga River Delta
View the intricate network of waterways where the Volga empties into the northern Caspian Sea.
Sea of Azov
As the flight descends into Krasnodar, the shallow waters of the Azov Sea may be visible to the northwest.
The right side is ideal for geography enthusiasts interested in the Aral Sea's landscape and the Volga Delta's greenery. In the afternoon, this side receives direct sunlight, which can make it quite warm and bright, so keep your window shade handy.
