Which side of the plane to sit from Zhoushuizi Airport (Dalian) to Fuzhou Changle International Airport (Fuzhou)?
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.
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.
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.
