Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior scenic experience, featuring immediate views of Bali's majestic volcanoes at takeoff and the iconic Hong Kong skyline during the approach to Shenzhen.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🌋

Mount Agung

Bali's highest and most sacred peak, often seen venting steam shortly after the plane turns north.

🏔️

Mount Rinjani

In the distance to the east, the massive caldera of Lombok's famous volcano is often visible in clear weather.

🐍

Borneo River Systems

Spectacular views of meandering silt-heavy rivers snaking through the deep green landscapes of Kalimantan.

🪸

South China Sea Atolls

Clusters of coral reefs and small islands visible as turquoise spots in the deep blue ocean.

🏙️

Hong Kong Skyline

A breathtaking view of Victoria Peak and the dense skyscrapers of Kowloon and Hong Kong Island during the SZX arrival.

Choose the right side for the 'Volcano View' at takeoff. Early morning flights are best to avoid the heavy cloud build-up that often occurs over Borneo by midday. Sit behind the wing to ensure the engine doesn't block the view of Hong Kong's mountains during the final approach.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🏖️

Bali West Coast

Aerial views of the Kuta and Seminyak coastline immediately after departure from Ngurah Rai.

🚢

Java Sea Shipping Lanes

Spotting large cargo vessels navigating the busy maritime routes between Indonesia and Singapore.

🌴

West Kalimantan Jungles

Dense tropical rainforest canopies and large plantation patterns across Western Borneo.

🌉

Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge

The world's longest sea-crossing bridge visible as the plane enters the Pearl River Delta airspace.

🏙️

Macau Peninsula

The dense high-rise casinos and unique urban layout of Macau appearing on the left during the descent.

The left side is ideal for afternoon or evening flights to witness the sunset over the South China Sea. During the descent into SZX, keep your eyes peeled for the intricate network of bridges and reclaimed land around Macau and Zhuhai.
