Which side of the plane to sit from Changsha Huanghua International Airport (Changcha) to Luzhou Airport (Luzhou)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers more dramatic views of the karst mountain formations in western Hunan and the winding Yangtze River as you approach the Sichuan Basin.
Xiang River Views
Clear views of the major waterway bisecting Changsha shortly after takeoff from CSX.
Wuling Mountain Range
Dramatic karst peaks and jagged limestone formations similar to the nearby Zhangjiajie scenery.
Upper Yangtze River
The mighty river carving deep serpentine bends through the eastern Sichuan Basin rim.
Luzhou Urban Sprawl
The confluence of the Tuo River and Yangtze River as the plane begins its final approach into Yunlong.
Optimal for afternoon flights to get the best illumination of the karst mountains. Ensure you are seated forward or behind the wing to capture the winding river valleys during the descent into Luzhou.
Southern Hunan Hills
Lush, rolling green hills and patchwork agricultural fields immediately after departure.
Northern Guizhou Highlands
Rugged, terraced mountain slopes characteristic of the Guizhou-Yunnan plateau transition.
Chishui River Basin
The famous 'Red Water' river valley, known for its deep canyons and liquor production heritage.
Zunyi Environs
Dense urban clusters and historic mountainous passages visible during the mid-flight cruise.
The left side is best for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight. Look for the distinct transition from the humid hills of Hunan to the drier, rocky terraces of the Guizhou border region.
