Our Recommendation
7.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior vantage point for viewing the lush Vietnamese coastline, the mountainous interior of Hainan Island, and the rugged, scenic terrain of Fujian province during the transition to mainland China.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🏖️

Son Tra Peninsula

Dramatic views of the 'Monkey Mountain' and Da Nang's white sand beaches immediately after takeoff.

⛰️

Hainan Island Interior

Aerial perspective of the central highlands and dense tropical forests of China's southern island province.

🏙️

Pearl River Delta

Distant views of the massive urban clusters and high-rises around the Guangdong coast.

🏔️

Wuyi Mountain Range

The jagged peaks and misty valleys of Fujian, famous for its tea plantations and UNESCO sites.

🛶

Ou River Estuary

The final descent offers views of the wide Ou River snaking through Wenzhou's northern districts.

Book a window seat on the left for late afternoon flights to catch a stunning sunset over the mainland. During the middle of the flight, keep an eye out for the transition from the Gulf of Tonkin to the mountainous terrain of Fujian. Avoid seats directly over the wing to maintain a clear view of the complex river systems near Wenzhou.

Right Side Highlights
6.5
🌊

South China Sea

Expansive views of the deep blue waters and major international shipping lanes.

🏝️

Paracel Islands

On clear days, small coral atolls and turquoise reefs may be visible in the distance to the south.

🚢

Taiwan Strait

Observation of one of the world's busiest maritime corridors filled with cargo vessels.

🏗️

Wenzhou Archipelago

A bird's-eye view of the numerous industrial and natural islands scattered along the Zhejiang coast.

🌅

Pacific Sunrise

Ideal for early morning departures to witness the sun rising over the East China Sea.

The right side is the best choice for morning flights to experience the sunrise over the ocean. As you approach Wenzhou, the right side provides an excellent view of the coastal reclamation projects and the intricate island chains of the Wenzhou Bay. Use a polarized filter for photos to cut through the sea haze.
