During the approach over the estuary, passengers on the left side can see the brightly painted buildings of Anadyr and the dramatic contrast between the industrial port and the remote tundra.
The left side offers a front-row seat to the Arctic frontier, featuring the dramatic transition from the Northern Urals to the icy shores of the Laptev Sea, with high chances of Aurora sightings during winter flights.
The right side provides the most dramatic views of the Sea of Okhotsk coastline, potential sightings of the Shantar Islands, and a better perspective of the rugged Kolyma mountain ranges during the transit to Chukotka.
