Our Recommendation
9.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side is the prime choice for this route as it offers an unparalleled view of Mount Elbrus, the highest peak in Europe, followed by a dramatic approach toward the iconic Mount Ararat as you land in Yerevan.

Right Side Highlights
9.2
🛶

Don River Meanders

The winding path of the Don River creates intricate patterns across the landscape south of Voronezh.

🏔️

Mount Elbrus

The double-peaked volcanic giant and Europe's highest point is a breathtaking sight mid-flight.

🏔️

Greater Caucasus Range

A continuous wall of jagged, snow-capped peaks that serves as a natural border between Russia and Georgia.

🗻

Mount Aragats

The highest peak in modern Armenia, featuring four distinct summits around a volcanic crater.

⛰️

Mount Ararat

The legendary snow-capped peak that dominates the horizon during the final approach into Yerevan.

Book a window seat on the right for the most iconic landmarks. Mount Elbrus will appear to the west as you head south; for the best photos, use a fast shutter speed to capture the glaciers. During the descent into EVN, keep your camera ready for Mount Ararat, which usually appears as a massive silhouette to the right of the aircraft.

Left Side Highlights
8.4
🌾

Russian Steppes

Expansive views of the fertile agricultural heartland of Southern Russia shortly after departure.

🏔️

Mount Kazbek

A stunning, glaciated dormant stratovolcano and one of the major mountains of the Caucasus.

🌊

Lake Sevan

The largest body of water in Armenia and the Caucasus region, known for its changing colors and high altitude.

🌋

Geghama Mountains

A scenic volcanic highland range that stretches between Lake Sevan and the Ararat plain.

On morning flights, the left side will have the best lighting for the Russian plains, though you may face glare later in the journey. Watch closely as you cross the Armenian border for the vibrant blue hues of Lake Sevan, which is best viewed from this side approximately 20 minutes before landing.
