Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Lahore to Riyadh. Right-side seats capture the most dramatic scenery: the Ravi River and Lahore cityscape on departure, then the transition across the Punjab plains and into the Thar Desert. Left side offers better landing views but misses the more varied midpoint geography.

During takeoff from Allama Iqbal International (LHE), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right-side seats capture the Ravi River valley and the urban sprawl of Lahore as you climb out northeastward, with the Salt Range foothills visible on the horizon. Left side faces the flat Punjab plains with minimal relief. Notable sights include: Ravi River (flowing southeast through Lahore), Lahore city grid and Badshahi Mosque area, Salt Range foothills (distant northeast horizon), Punjab agricultural plains.

When landing at King Khaled International (RUH), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left-side seats offer views of Riyadh's urban expansion and the Wadi Hanifah valley as you descend from the northeast. Right side faces the empty Rub' al Khali (Empty Quarter) desert with no distinguishing features. Notable sights include: Wadi Hanifah valley (green corridor cutting through desert), Riyadh city sprawl and high-rise district, King Khaled International Airport runways, Rub' al Khali desert (sand dunes to the southeast).

The flight from Allama Iqbal International (LHE) to King Khaled International (RUH) takes 2h 15m.

Punjab plains with irrigation channels and agricultural fields, transition into the Thar Desert with sparse vegetation and sand dunes, Sutlej River valley (if visible during climb), the arid landscape between Bahawalpur and the Saudi border with scattered settlements and dry riverbeds
