Aerial views of the Han River, the Dragon Bridge, and the urban stretch of Da Nang immediately after takeoff.
Hainan Highlands
Views of the dense tropical forests and mountainous interior of central Hainan Island while transiting north.
Wuyi Mountains
The dramatic peaks and lush greenery of the Wuyi mountain range as the flight crosses into southeastern China.

Zhejiang Villages
A patchwork of traditional water towns and agricultural fields visible during the descent into Hangzhou.
Sit on the left for the best views of the Danang city center during departure. For afternoon flights, this side will provide stunning sunset views over the mainland Chinese mountains. Request a window seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat haze when photographing the Wuyi mountain range.

Son Tra Peninsula
A beautiful view of 'Monkey Mountain' and the Linh Ung Pagoda statue overlooking the sea near Da Nang.
Sanya Coastline
Clear views of the luxury resorts and white sand beaches of Sanya on the southern tip of Hainan.
East China Sea
Vast ocean views dotted with massive container ships and fishing fleets near the busy ports of Ningbo.
Hangzhou Bay Bridge
Depending on the approach pattern, you may see this engineering marvel spanning the bay to the east.
The right side is ideal for morning flights to see the sunrise over the South China Sea. It offers better views of the coastal islands of Fujian and Zhejiang provinces. If the flight path stays closer to the coast, you will have a better vantage point for the massive industrial ports and the Hangzhou Bay Bridge during the final descent.
