Our Recommendation
8.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side of the aircraft offers spectacular, close-up views of the Hissar Range and the rugged Pamir-Alay mountain system that lines the border between Uzbekistan and Tajikistan.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
🏔️

Hissar Range

Dramatic snow-capped peaks of the Pamir-Alay system reaching heights over 4,000 meters.

🧗

Boysun Mountains

The striking limestone cliffs and massive tectonic folds of the UNESCO-recognized Boysun district.

❄️

Fan Mountains

Distant views of the turquoise lakes and high glaciers located across the Tajikistan border.

🏙️

Tashkent Panorama

A full view of the capital city's layout, including the iconic Tashkent TV Tower, upon final approach.

The right side is the clear winner for mountain lovers. Book a morning flight for the best illumination of the Hissar peaks. Avoid seats over the wing (usually rows 10-18 on A320/B737) to ensure you have a clear view of the deep mountain valleys and limestone ridges near Boysun.

Left Side Highlights

🌾

Surkhan-Darya Valley

Intricate patterns of irrigated farmland and cotton fields contrasting with the arid surroundings.

🏜️

Kyzylkum Desert Fringes

The vast golden expanse of the desert stretching toward the horizon in the west.

💧

Syr Darya River

The winding silver thread of Central Asia's longest river as the plane nears the Tashkent region.

🛤️

Trans-Afghan Railway

The critical rail infrastructure connecting Termez to the northern plains of Uzbekistan.

Sit on the left for softer lighting during morning flights and expansive desert sunsets on late afternoon departures. As you approach Tashkent, watch for the distinct transition from the arid southern plains to the more fertile, greener northern basin.
