Our Recommendation
8.2

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a more consistent panoramic view of the Chinese coastline, the Bohai Strait, and the vast East China Sea, including the beautiful Zhoushan Archipelago.

Left Side Highlights
8.2
🌊

Bohai Strait Crossing

Aerial view of the transition from the Liaodong Peninsula to the Shandong Peninsula over the narrow strait.

🏙️

Qingdao Coast

Vibrant views of the red-roofed historic districts and the modern skyline of the Qingdao coastline.

🏝️

Zhoushan Archipelago

A stunning collection of hundreds of islands scattered across the blue waters of the East China Sea.

🚢

Shipping Lanes

Massive cargo vessels and tankers navigating the busy maritime routes near Shanghai and Ningbo.

🌅

East China Sea Horizon

An unobstructed view of the sun rising over the Pacific if taking an early morning flight.

Book a window seat on the left (A) for morning flights to catch the sunrise over the sea. This side also offers the best view of the coastal islands during the descent into Fuzhou. Avoid seats directly over the wing for better photography of the archipelago.

Right Side Highlights
7.5
⛰️

Liaodong Peninsula

The rugged, hilly terrain of southern Liaoning province immediately after takeoff from Dalian.

🌾

Jiangsu Waterlands

An intricate network of rivers, canals, and agricultural fields characteristic of eastern China's plains.

🏙️

Yangtze River Delta

Dense urban clusters and massive industrial parks as the plane passes the inland side of Shanghai.

🌉

Hangzhou Bay

Glimpses of the massive cross-sea bridge infrastructure connecting the northern and southern delta regions.

🌲

Fujian Highlands

Lush, densely forested mountains and winding river valleys as you enter Fujian airspace.

The right side (F) is ideal for evening flights to enjoy the sunset over the mainland. It provides a better perspective of the inland mountain ranges of Fujian during the final approach. Keep an eye out for the Min River as it winds through the mountains toward the city.
