Search flights from BKK to NGB
Pearl River Delta
A sprawling megalopolis including glimpses of Shenzhen and the surrounding industrial hubs.
Fujian Coastline
The intricate, jagged coast of Southeast China with numerous bays and busy ports like Xiamen.
Taiwan Strait
Expansive views of the busy shipping lanes and the distant horizon of the strait.
Zhoushan Archipelago
Hundreds of small islands and bridges dotting the East China Sea during the final approach.
The right side is superior for coastal enthusiasts. For daylight flights, try to secure a seat behind the wing to capture the contrast between the turquoise sea and the urban density of cities like Xiamen. During descent, look for the massive container ships entering the Ningbo-Zhoushan port area, one of the world's busiest maritime gateways.

Khorat Plateau
Vast agricultural landscapes of Northeast Thailand shortly after departure.
Mekong River
The winding border between Thailand and Laos, visible as a massive silver thread.
Guangxi Karst Peaks
Dramatic limestone formations and jagged mountains as the flight enters Southern China.
Wuyi Mountains
Densely forested ridges and deep valleys along the Fujian and Jiangxi provincial border.
Choose the left side if you prefer inland scenery and the unique karst topography of Southern China. For evening flights, this side experiences less direct sun glare, making it easier to photograph the mountains. Watch for the dramatic change in terrain as you leave the flat plains of Thailand and enter the mountainous Chinese interior.
