Which side of the plane to sit from Bogashevo Airport (Tomsk) to Domodedovo International Airport (Moscow)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers superior lighting for daytime flights and captures the most dramatic views of the Ob River crossing and the southern foothills of the Ural Mountains.
Ob River Crossing
Within minutes of departing Tomsk, the aircraft crosses the mighty Ob, one of the world's longest river systems.
Siberian Steppe
Vast agricultural mosaics of the southern West Siberian Plain stretching toward the Kazakh border.
Southern Ural Range
The ancient, forested peaks of the Urals, marking the symbolic boundary between Asia and Europe.
Volga River Bend
Dramatic views of the Volga River's main channel as the flight enters Central Russia.
Moscow Basin
The transition from dense pine forests to the burgeoning urban sprawl of the Moscow metropolitan area.
Sit on the left side to avoid the harsh northern sun glare during midday flights. For morning departures, this side receives soft light that highlights the terrain texture of the Urals. Watch closely immediately after takeoff for the Ob River bridge.
Vasyugan Swamp
Aerial views of the northern Vasyugan, the world's largest swamp system and a vital carbon sink.
Central Ural Divide
A direct view of the mountain ridges that divide the Perm and Sverdlovsk regions.
Kama River
The massive Kama River, a primary tributary of the Volga, visible near the city of Perm.
Gorky Reservoir
The wide, sea-like expanse of the Gorky Reservoir on the Volga River system.
Oka River Meanders
Beautiful winding river loops as the plane descends toward Domodedovo Airport.
The right side is excellent for observing the vastness of the Siberian taiga. In winter, look for the geometric patterns of frozen rivers and logging roads. For evening flights, you may catch a glimpse of the northern lights if the flight path is sufficiently northerly during geomagnetic activity.
