Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior vantage point for the most iconic landmarks of this route, including the Da Nang coastline, the Mekong River crossing, and the vast expanse of the Tonle Sap lake on approach.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏙️

Da Nang Coastline

Aerial views of the Dragon Bridge, the Han River, and the crescent-shaped coastline immediately after takeoff.

⛰️

Marble Mountains

Five limestone peaks rising abruptly from the coastal plain just south of the city center.

💧

Mekong River Crossing

A majestic view of the winding Mekong River as it flows through the border regions of Laos and Cambodia.

🛶

Tonle Sap Lake

The 'Great Lake' of Cambodia appears on the descent, showing its unique muddy waters and floating villages.

🌾

Cambodian Lowlands

Intricate patchworks of rice paddies and rural irrigation canals that define the Cambodian heartland.

Sit on the left for the best views of the Tonle Sap Lake during the final approach into Siem Reap. Morning flights are ideal to avoid the harsh afternoon glare reflecting off the water. Keep your camera ready immediately after takeoff from DAD for views of the Marble Mountains.

Right Side Highlights
7.4
🌲

Annamite Range

Rugged, jungle-clad mountains forming the natural border between Vietnam and Laos.

🏞️

Virachey National Park

Vast stretches of dense, undisturbed rainforest in the remote northeastern corner of Cambodia.

🛕

Angkor Archaeological Park

On clear days, the massive forested footprint of the Angkor temple complex is visible to the north during descent.

☁️

Mountain Cloud Formations

Dramatic clouds often cling to the peaks of the Central Highlands and the Truong Son range.

The right side is better for viewing the high peaks of the Annamite Range. If the aircraft approaches Siem Reap from the north, you may catch a glimpse of the Angkor Wat temple spires, though they often appear as small silhouettes in the vast forest canopy.
