Our Recommendation

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a stunning and continuous view of the Mediterranean coastline and the deep blue waters of the Gulf of Sirte, providing a beautiful contrast against the North African landmass.

Left Side Highlights
8.2
🌊

Mediterranean Coastline

Continuous panoramic views of the turquoise shoreline stretching from Tripoli toward the east.

⚓

Gulf of Sirte

Aerial transit over the wide, sweeping arc of the Mediterranean's southernmost reach.

🏙️

Benghazi Skyline

Views of Libya's second-largest city and its prominent lagoons during the transition toward Al Bayda'.

⛰️

Northern Escarpment

The dramatic cliffs where the Green Mountain plateau meets the sea as you approach the destination.

Choose the left side for morning flights to keep the sun behind the aircraft, ensuring better visibility of the sea. This side is also superior for spotting the distinct change in water color near the coastal lagoons of Benghazi.

Right Side Highlights
7.4
🏙️

Misrata Urban Area

A clear view of the industrial hub and the sprawling residential areas of Misrata shortly after takeoff.

🧂

Salt Pans (Sabkhas)

Intricate, crystalline patterns of the inland salt marshes scattered across the arid landscape.

🏜️

Saharan Fringe

The rugged transition where the Mediterranean climate meets the northern edge of the vast Sahara Desert.

🌳

Jabal al Akhdar Valleys

The surprisingly lush, green agricultural valleys of the 'Green Mountain' visible during the descent into La Abraq.

The right side is best during late afternoon flights when the sinking sun casts long shadows over the desert dunes and the valleys of the Jabal al Akhdar, highlighting the unique topography of the region.
