Which side of the plane to sit from Jeju International Airport (Cheju) to Ningbo Lishe International Airport (Ninbo)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side provides a superior perspective of the intricate Zhoushan Archipelago and the massive infrastructure of the Yangtze River Delta, including distant views of the Hangzhou Bay Bridge.
Jeju City Skyline
A full view of the northern coast and the urban center of Jeju shortly after liftoff.
Aewol Coastal Road
The turquoise waters and winding black lava rock coastline on the northwestern edge of Jeju.
Hangzhou Bay Bridge
Visible on clear days to the northwest, this is one of the longest trans-oceanic bridges in the world.
Zhoushan Archipelago
A stunning network of over 1,000 islands connected by an ambitious series of sea bridges.
Ningbo-Zhoushan Port
The world's busiest port by cargo tonnage, featuring massive cranes and endless rows of colorful containers.
The right side is ideal for late afternoon flights to catch the sunset over the Chinese mainland. It offers the best view of the industrial scale of the Ningbo-Zhoushan port complex. Watch for the bridge networks connecting the islands as the plane descends below 10,000 feet.
Hallasan Mountain
The massive shield volcano at the center of Jeju Island, visible immediately after takeoff if looping south.
Seogwipo Coastline
Dramatic volcanic rock formations and waterfalls that drop directly into the sea along Jeju's southern rim.
East China Sea Shipping
Dense clusters of container ships and tankers navigating one of the world's busiest maritime corridors.
Mount Putuo
One of the four sacred mountains of Buddhism, located on an island featuring a giant bronze statue of Guanyin.
Ningbo Southern Districts
The rapid urbanization and green hills of the Yinzhou district during the final approach phase.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the harsh western sun. During departure, if the wind is from the north, you'll get an unparalleled view of Hallasan's crater. Keep an eye out for the distinct golden glimmer of the Putuoshan monuments about 20 minutes before landing.
