Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a magnificent panorama of the Fujian and Guangdong coastlines, featuring major city clusters, mountainous terrain, and the final crossing of the Qiongzhou Strait.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
🏙️

Xiamen Skyline

A clear view of the dense urban development of Xiamen and the scenic, historic Gulangyu Island.

🏞️

Fujian Mountains

The rugged, green-cloaked mountains of Fujian province providing a textured landscape to the west.

🌉

Pearl River Delta

Distant views of the massive infrastructure and urban sprawl of the Greater Bay Area including major ports.

🚜

Leizhou Peninsula

The distinct red soil and rectangular agricultural plots of China's southernmost mainland peninsula.

🚢

Qiongzhou Strait

The final water crossing separating the mainland from Hainan Island before the descent into Haikou.

For the best visibility, book an afternoon flight to have the sun behind you. The right side is superior for landmarks; look for the transition from the rocky Fujian coast to the flat, tropical landscapes of the Leizhou Peninsula.

Left Side Highlights
6.2
🌊

Pingtan Island

View the large island known for its unique rock formations and bridge connections shortly after takeoff.

🛳️

Taiwan Strait

Observe one of the world's busiest maritime passages with numerous cargo ships scattered across the blue.

🏝️

Nan'ao Island

A crescent-shaped island near Shantou featuring vast wind farms visible on its mountain ridges.

Choose the left side for morning flights to witness the sunrise over the ocean. It offers a more tranquil, blue-dominated view throughout the journey without the distraction of land clutter.
