Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior vantage point for the initial climb along the Israeli coastline and the dramatic volcanic peaks of Central Anatolia, followed by the vast agricultural patterns of the Kuban region.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏙️

Israeli Coastline

Stunning views of Tel Aviv, Herzliya, and Haifa as the plane banks north along the shore.

🏔️

Mount Erciyes

A massive, often snow-covered stratovolcano rising above the landscape near Kayseri.

⛰️

Anti-Taurus Range

Sharp limestone ridges and deep canyons visible during the transit of eastern Turkey.

🌊

Black Sea Crossing

The final water crossing before entering Russian airspace near the Sochi/Novorossiysk region.

🚜

Kuban Steppe

Geometric agricultural fields and the winding Kuban River as you descend into Krasnodar.

The right side is best for morning flights to avoid direct sun glare. It provides the best view of the Israeli coast during departure. Look for the massive peak of Mount Erciyes roughly midway through the flight. During the final descent, watch for the intricate patterns of the Kuban irrigation systems.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🌊

Levantine Basin

Expansive views of the deep blue Mediterranean Sea shortly after leaving Israeli airspace.

🏝️

Cyprus Island

Aerial perspective of the island's southern coastline and the Troodos mountain range.

⛰️

Taurus Mountains

The rugged, snow-capped peaks of southern Turkey providing a dramatic transition into Anatolia.

🏙️

Anatolian Plateau

A patchwork of high-altitude plains and rural Turkish settlements across the heart of the country.

🌅

Mediterranean Sunset

Ideal side for capturing the sunset over the horizon on evening northbound departures.

Choose the left side for evening flights to witness the sunset over the Mediterranean. Keep your camera ready about 30 minutes after takeoff for views of Cyprus, and look for the contrast between the turquoise coast and the beige Turkish interior.
