Which side of the plane to sit from Longjia Airport (Changchun) to Liuting Airport (Qingdao)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the Liaoning coastline and the spectacular Jiaozhou Bay Bridge during the descent into Qingdao, complemented by sunset views on afternoon flights.
Changchun Cityscape
A clear view of the 'Automobile City' and its industrial layout during the initial climb.
Liaodong Wetlands
Observe the intricate river deltas and seasonal reed marshes near Panjin and Yingkou.
Jiaozhou Bay Bridge
A stunning bird's-eye view of one of the world's longest cross-sea bridges spanning the bay.
Qingdao Port
Massive container terminals and heavy maritime traffic in one of the world's busiest cargo hubs.
West Coast New Area
The rapidly growing skyline of Huangdao district visible during the final approach phase.
For the best experience, book an afternoon flight to see the Jiaozhou Bay Bridge illuminated by the golden hour. Ensure you have a window seat clear of the wing to capture the bridge's full 26-mile span.
Songhua River Meanders
View the winding paths of the Songhua River basin shortly after take-off from Changchun.
Yellow Sea Horizon
An expansive view of the deep blue Yellow Sea as the plane crosses from Liaoning to the Shandong Peninsula.
Laoshan Mountain
The sacred Taoist peaks of Laoshan meet the sea on the eastern approach to Qingdao.
Qingdao Old Town
Red-tiled roofs and European-style architecture are visible near the historic Zhanqiao Pier area.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the harsh western sun. This side provides the best view of the rugged Laoshan coastline if the flight path approaches from the east over the sea.
