Mediterranean Coastline
Stunning views of the Tunisian coast and the deep blue Mediterranean Sea immediately after takeoff.
Nile Delta & Cairo
The striking contrast of the vibrant green Nile Delta meeting the golden sands of the Egyptian desert.
Sinai Peninsula
Rugged, mountainous terrain and the turquoise waters of the Gulf of Aqaba.
Jordanian Badlands
Aerial views of the unique rock formations and red sands near the Wadi Rum region.
Dubai Cityscape
Premier views of the Burj Khalifa, Downtown Dubai, and the World Islands during the standard approach sequence.
For night flights, the left side is essential to see the glowing urban sprawl of Cairo and the brilliantly lit Burj Khalifa on arrival. If the flight departs in the morning, the left side is also better as it remains in the shade, reducing window glare for photography of the Sinai mountains.

The Nile River
A clear view of the life-giving river as it snakes through the arid Egyptian landscape.

Arabian Interior

The right side is excellent for desert enthusiasts wanting to see the Sahara and the Arabian Peninsula's core. However, on daytime flights heading east, the sun will be on this side for most of the journey, so keep your window shade down periodically to avoid cabin heat and glare.
