Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers breathtaking views of the East China Sea coastline, several major port cities, and the beautiful island chains of the Zhejiang coast as you approach Ningbo.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🌊

Fujian Coastline

Enjoy views of the rugged and indented coastline of Fujian, featuring numerous bays, peninsulas, and small fishing villages.

🏝️

Xiamen and Quanzhou

On clear days, you can spot the urban islands of Xiamen and the historical maritime hub of Quanzhou along the shoreline.

🚢

Zhoushan Archipelago

During the approach to Ningbo, the right side provides a bird's-eye view of the world's busiest cargo port and the nearby island clusters.

🌉

East China Sea Bridges

Look for the massive engineering feats of the bridges connecting the coastal islands to the mainland near the Hangzhou Bay area.

The right side is superior for coastal scenery. For the best experience, book a window seat away from the wing to see the complex island geography of the Zhejiang coast. If flying in the late afternoon, the sunlight reflecting off the East China Sea creates a stunning shimmering effect.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🏙️

Guangzhou Skyline

Upon departure from Baiyun, view the sprawling Pearl River Delta and the dense urban forest of Guangzhou's northern districts.

⛰️

Wuyi Mountains

Midway through the flight, the aircraft passes west of the UNESCO-listed Wuyi Mountains, known for their dramatic sandstone peaks and tea plantations.

🌾

Zhejiang Countryside

Observe the patchwork of agricultural fields and river valleys characteristic of the inland Zhejiang province during the descent.

Sit on the left for inland mountain views and to avoid the direct afternoon sun when flying northeast. Morning flights are best for clear, shadow-rich views of the mountain ridges of Fujian and Zhejiang provinces.
