Our Recommendation

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior view of Hallasan Mountain upon departure and provides closer perspectives of the scenic lake systems and mountain ranges across southern China.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🌋

Hallasan Mountain

A stunning view of South Korea's highest peak and its volcanic crater shortly after takeoff.

🌊

Seogwipo Coastline

Dramatic aerial views of the southern Jeju cliffs and the turquoise waters surrounding the island.

🌉

Hangzhou Bay

Crossing the coast of mainland China, you may spot the massive infrastructure of the bridge spanning the bay.

💧

Poyang Lake

Depending on the exact flight path, you can see China's largest freshwater lake in the Jiangxi province.

⛰️

Zhejiang Ranges

Aerial views of the lush, rugged mountains of southeastern China as you head inland toward Hunan.

Sit on the left for the most iconic view of Hallasan's summit right after departure from Jeju. During the day, the southern sun provides excellent illumination for the mountainous terrain of Anhui and Jiangxi provinces. Keep your window shade open during the first 15 minutes and the final 30 minutes for the most dramatic geographic transitions.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
🏖️

Jeju North Shore

Views of the emerald waters and white sands of Hamdeok and Gimnyeong beaches near the airport.

🚢

Yangtze River Delta

The massive estuary where the Yangtze meets the East China Sea, often filled with cargo ships.

🌅

Taihu Lake

A glimpse of the large, scenic lake near the cities of Wuxi and Suzhou to the north of the path.

🏢

Changsha Skyline

The dense urban sprawl and skyscrapers of the Hunan provincial capital during the descent.

The right side is ideal for avoiding direct sunlight and glare if flying in the early afternoon, making it better for clear photography of the clouds and the Yangtze delta. Watch for the distinct change in water color from the blue sea to the sediment-rich brown of the Yangtze River entrance near the Chinese coast.
