Which side of the plane to sit from Zhoushuizi Airport (Dalian) to Handan Airport (Handan)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a more diverse visual experience, featuring the sprawling industrial ports of the Bohai Rim and the distant silhouettes of the Taihang Mountains during the final approach.
Search flights from DLC to HDG
Dalian Bay Coastline
Beautiful views of the rugged Liaodong Peninsula coastline immediately after departure from DLC.
Tianjin Binhai Port
Aerial perspective of one of the world's largest port complexes and industrial shipping hubs.
Hebei Metro Areas
Views of secondary cities and industrial clusters that define the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei economic zone.
Taihang Mountain Range
On clear days, the western horizon reveals the prominent silhouette of the Taihang Mountains upon descent into Handan.
Sit on the right for the best sunset views on late afternoon flights. The descent into Handan often provides a great angle of the Taihang Mountains; look for the dramatic change in terrain to the west. Avoid midday flights if you want to minimize glare from the sun reflecting off the Bohai Sea.

Bohai Sea Expanse
Deep blue waters of the inner gulf with numerous cargo ships following maritime corridors.
North China Plain
A vast, geometric patchwork of agricultural fields that dominate the landscape between the coast and Handan.
Handan Urban Sprawl
Dense urban development and residential clusters typical of the southern Hebei industrial heartland.
The left side is best for viewing the sunrise if flying early in the morning. Keep an eye out for the distinct transition from sea to the flat, fertile plains of Hebei, which are particularly green in late spring and summer.
