Flight path crosses the Mediterranean Sea, Suez Canal (or southern Red Sea route), Arabian Sea, and Indian Ocean. Notable waypoints include the Nile Delta region, Arabian Peninsula coastlines, and the vast open ocean of the Indian Ocean. No major mountain ranges visible during the long oceanic middle section; primary interest lies in the dramatic coastal transitions and the scale of open water.
