Which side of the plane to sit from Don Mueang International Airport (Bangkok) to Nanchang Changbei International Airport (Nanchang)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers spectacular views of the dramatic Karst limestone mountains near Guilin and a better perspective of the Mekong River crossing.
Bangkok Metropolis
Stunning aerial view of the Chao Phraya River and Bangkok's dense urban sprawl upon departure.
Mekong River
A clear view of the winding Mekong River as it forms the border between Thailand and Laos.
Luang Prabang Range
Rugged forested mountains that define the northern Thai and Laotian landscape.
Guilin Karst Mountains
Breathtaking limestone peak formations visible while cruising over the Guangxi region.
Changsha Skyline
Distant views of the major urban center of Hunan province during the mid-flight phase.
Choose a window seat on the left for afternoon flights to catch the sun illuminating the Karst peaks of Guangxi. This side also avoids direct glare during morning departures from Bangkok. Look out for the distinct change in topography from the flat plains of Thailand to the sharp peaks of Southern China.
Isan Farmlands
A patchwork of rice paddies and agricultural landscapes across Northeastern Thailand.
Nam Theun Basin
View of the massive reservoirs and hydroelectric projects nestled in the Laotian highlands.
Annamite Mountains
The dense, cloud-shrouded mountain range stretching along the border of Laos and Vietnam.
Poyang Lake
Views of China's largest freshwater lake as the flight descends towards Nanchang.
Gan River
The primary river of Jiangxi province which leads directly into the Nanchang metropolitan area.
The right side is ideal for morning flights to see the sunrise over the horizon. During the descent into Nanchang, keep a close eye out for Poyang Lake, especially during the wet season when it is at its most expansive. Ensure your window is clear for the descent as the Gan River provides a scenic approach.
