Which side of the plane to sit from Jeju International Airport (Cheju) to Zhoushuizi Airport (Dalian)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side provides a superior vantage point for the scenic departure over Jeju's northern coast, the dense cluster of islands in the Dadohaehaesang National Park, and the spectacular Dalian city skyline during the final approach.
Jeju Northern Shore
Clear views of the Jeju City coastline, the turquoise waters of Hamdeok Beach, and the northern volcanic landscape.
South Korean Archipelago
Dazzling views of the thousands of small islands making up the Dadohaehaesang National Park off the Korean southwest coast.
Bohai Sea Entrance
Visuals of the heavy maritime traffic entering the Bohai Sea, a critical corridor for Chinese trade.
Dalian Skyline
Breathtaking views of the Xinghai Square and the massive cross-sea bridge during the approach to Zhoushuizi Airport.
Xinghai Bay Bridge
A clear top-down view of the 6-kilometer long double-deck suspension bridge that defines Dalian's modern waterfront.
The right side is the clear winner for the approach into Dalian, as most flight paths bank to reveal the city's impressive high-rises and the Xinghai Bay Bridge. For the best lighting on the Korean islands, a mid-morning flight is ideal to avoid harsh glare while highlighting the island topography.
Hallasan Volcano
A majestic view of South Korea's highest peak shortly after takeoff from Jeju, especially prominent if the plane turns west.
Yellow Sea Crossing
Expansive views of the vast turquoise waters and occasional international shipping lanes connecting major Asian ports.
Shandong Coastline
Faint views of the eastern tip of the Shandong Peninsula, including the coastal hills near Weihai.
Lushunkou District
The historic Port Arthur area and the rugged southern tip of the Liaodong Peninsula as you begin the descent.
Choose the left side for evening flights to catch a stunning sunset over the Yellow Sea. Keep an eye out for the distinctive silhouette of Hallasan immediately after departure, though its visibility depends heavily on cloud cover which often clings to the summit.
