Which side of the plane to sit from Tashkent International Airport (Tashkent) to Navoi Airport (Navoi)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side of the aircraft offers the most dramatic scenery, featuring the rugged peaks of the Nurata Mountains and the lush agricultural ribbons of the Zarafshan River valley.
Tashkent Cityscape
A sweeping view of the Uzbek capital's sprawling green spaces and Soviet-era urban planning upon takeoff.
Syr Darya River
A clear crossing of Central Asia's second-longest river, visible shortly after reaching cruising altitude.
Nurata Mountain Range
The northern foothills and ridges of the Nurata mountains provide a jagged contrast to the flat steppe.
Zarafshan Oasis
The fertile agricultural zones around the Zarafshan River, appearing as a vibrant green corridor amidst arid terrain.
Navoi Industrial Complexes
An aerial view of the massive chemical and gold processing facilities that define the region's economy.
For the best visibility of the mountain ridges, choose a morning flight when the sun illuminates the southern slopes. The contrast between the desert and the irrigated valley is most striking in late spring or early summer.
Mirzachul Steppe
Observation of the 'Hungry Steppe,' showcasing the massive scale of 20th-century irrigation and canal projects.
Aydarkul Lake
On clear days, the shimmering blue waters of this massive man-made lake are visible on the northern horizon.
Kyzylkum Desert Edge
The transition into the vast red sands of the Kyzylkum, particularly noticeable as the plane nears Navoi.
Navoi Free Economic Zone
Detailed views of the modern logistics hubs and cargo infrastructure during the final approach.
The right side is ideal for evening flights to witness the sunset over the Kyzylkum Desert. Keep a lookout for the Chardara Reservoir to the north shortly after leaving the Tashkent area.
