Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides an unparalleled view of the high Caucasus Mountains, including the peaks of Georgia, and the dramatic southern coastline of the Black Sea.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
⛰️

Caucasus Mountains

Breathtaking views of the snow-capped peaks forming the natural border between Asia and Europe.

🌋

Mount Elbrus

Europe's highest peak is often visible to the south when cruising over the southern Russian or Georgian border.

🌊

Black Sea Coast

A stunning contrast of deep blue water against the rugged green terrain of the Balkan Peninsula.

🏰

Prague Old Town

On many landing patterns into PRG, the left side offers views of the Vltava River and the historic city center.

Sit on the left for the best mountain photography. Early morning departures from Tashkent ensure the sun is behind or above the plane as you reach the Caucasus, minimizing glare. During the descent into Prague, keep your camera ready for the iconic red roofs of the city if the approach comes from the east.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
🏜️

Kyzylkum Desert

The vast, reddish sands of the Uzbek desert visible shortly after departing Tashkent.

🚤

Volga River Delta

The massive and intricate network of waterways where the Volga meets the Caspian Sea.

🌲

Carpathian Mountains

Rolling green ridges and dense forests as the flight crosses into Central Europe.

🏙️

Bohemian Landscape

The picturesque, hilly countryside of the Czech Republic punctuated by small villages.

The right side is ideal for spotting the unique geography of the Aral Sea basin to the north early in the flight. It is also the better side for sunset views if the flight takes place in the late afternoon, as the sun will set to the west-southwest. Be aware of wing position, as mid-cabin seats may have views obstructed during the long cruise over the Caspian.
