CGO → FOC
Which side of the plane to sit from Zhengzhou Xinzheng International Airport (Zhengzhou) to Fuzhou Changle International Airport (Fuzhou)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers spectacular views of inland China's natural geography, including the rugged Dabie and Wuyi mountain ranges and the massive Poyang Lake.
Dabie Mountains
A major mountain range providing dramatic forested ridges along the border of Henan and Anhui.
Poyang Lake
China's largest freshwater lake, identifiable by its massive expanse and intricate wetland systems.
Wuyi Mountains
UNESCO World Heritage site known for its stunning karst-like peaks and ancient tea-growing valleys.
Min River Basin
The winding Min River carving through the steep, green hills of northern Fujian.
Lushan Mountain
Distant views of this famous scenic peak located near the northern shore of Poyang Lake.
The right side is significantly more scenic for this route. Look for Poyang Lake approximately 45 minutes into the flight. Afternoon flights are ideal for the right side as the sun highlights the textures of the Wuyi mountain range to the west.
Zhengzhou Cityscape
Aerial view of the Henan capital's urban sprawl shortly after takeoff from CGO airport.
Central China Plains
A vast patchwork of agricultural fields across Henan and Anhui provinces.
Yangtze River Crossing
Glimpses of the mighty Yangtze River as it winds through the lower basin toward the delta.
Fujian Coastline
Views of the East China Sea and the rugged coastal inlets as the flight turns for its final approach.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid direct sun glare. While primarily overland, you may catch a glimpse of the distant coastline near Ningde and Fuzhou as the plane begins its descent into FOC.
