Our Recommendation
8.7

Left Side of the Plane

The left side of the aircraft offers a superior vantage point for witnessing the dramatic transition from the Arctic landscapes of Greenland to the jagged peaks of the Caucasus and the vast salt deserts of Iran.

Left Side Highlights
8.7
🇬🇱

Greenland Ice Cap

Stunning views of the southern tip of Greenland, featuring massive ice sheets, glaciers, and deep blue fjords during the transatlantic crossing.

🏔️

The Caucasus Range

A spectacular panorama of snow-capped mountains, including Mount Elbrus, spanning the region between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea.

🏜️

Dasht-e Kavir

The Great Salt Desert of Iran, showcasing unique geological formations, salt crusts, and striking color variations from high altitude.

🏙️

Tehran and Alborz

If the flight path tracks north, you can see the sprawling Iranian capital bordered by the towering Alborz mountain range.

⛰️

Kirthar Mountains

Rugged, arid mountain ridges and limestone canyons that signal the entry into Pakistan's Sindh province near the journey's end.

For the best experience, choose the left side to potentially see the Aurora Borealis during the night-time crossing of the North Atlantic. As the flight typically arrives in Karachi in the evening, the morning light over Eastern Europe and midday sun over the Middle East will perfectly illuminate the mountain ranges. Ensure your window is clear of frost for the Greenland segment.

Right Side Highlights
7.5
🇨🇦

St. Lawrence River

Beautiful views of the winding river and the Thousand Islands region shortly after departure from Toronto.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

British Isles

On southern tracks, the right side offers views of the rolling green hills of Scotland or the rugged coastline of Northern Ireland.

🌊

Black Sea Coast

The contrast between the deep blue waters of the Black Sea and the coastal cities of Turkey or Romania.

⚓

Strait of Hormuz

Distant views of the strategically vital waterway and the dense cluster of cargo ships waiting to enter the Persian Gulf.

🏖️

Makran Coastline

The dramatic meeting point where the golden sands of the Balochistan desert meet the turquoise waters of the Arabian Sea during the final approach.

The right side is excellent for catching the sunset over the Atlantic Ocean if the flight timing aligns. It also provides better views of the Arabian Sea coastline during the descent into Karachi. Be aware that most of the European segment may be in darkness depending on the season, so focus on the views during the first and last three hours of the flight.
