Brisbane to Dubai flight path: BNE to DXB

Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Brisbane to Dubai.

Notable sights include: Moreton Bay, Brisbane CBD skyline, Sunshine Coast hinterland, Great Dividing Range foothills.

When landing at Dubai International (DXB), sit on the Right side for the best views.

The southern side mostly shows featureless desert dunes stretching inland. Notable sights include: Dubai skyline and Burj Khalifa, Palm Jumeirah, Persian Gulf coastline, Hajar Mountains in the distance.
