Which side of the plane to sit from Zhoushuizi Airport (Dalian) to Yancheng Airport (Yancheng)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the Liaodong Peninsula's rugged coastline upon departure and the unique ecological landscape of the Yancheng wetlands during the descent.
Lushunkou District
Dramatic views of the historic Lushun peninsula and its mountainous terrain at the southern tip of Dalian.
Bohai Strait Islands
Spot the various small islands that form a bridge between the Liaodong and Shandong peninsulas.
Offshore Wind Farms
Massive arrays of white wind turbines installed in the shallow waters along the Jiangsu coast.
Coastal Salt Pans
Highly geometric and colorful salt evaporation ponds that create a patchwork quilt effect near the Yancheng coast.
Wetland Reserves
The famous Yancheng National Rare Bird Nature Reserve, known for its red-crowned cranes and unique marsh vegetation.
The right side is ideal for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Bohai Sea. Keep a close eye out during the final 15 minutes of the flight for the distinctive red hues of the saline seepweed in the coastal wetlands during autumn months.
Dalian Port Area
Excellent views of the massive container terminals and shipping activity in the Dalian Bay area shortly after takeoff.
Dalian Cityscape
A panoramic view of Dalian's modern skyline and dense urban architecture as the plane climbs to the south.
Yellow Sea Expanse
A vast view of the deep blue Yellow Sea during the cruise phase, often dotted with large international cargo vessels.
Fishing Fleets
Clusters of traditional and modern fishing boats operating in the rich waters between Liaoning and Jiangsu provinces.
Jiangsu Coastline
The flat, fertile plains of northern Jiangsu appearing as the aircraft begins its approach into Yancheng.
For morning flights, the left side will face the sun, which may cause significant glare. Sit further back from the wing to get an unobstructed view of the Dalian harbor during the initial climb.
