Which side of the plane to sit from Haikou Meilan International Airport (Haikou) to Anqing Tianzhushan Airport (Anqing)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the Qiongzhou Strait during departure, more dramatic river landscapes in Jiangxi, and the best vantage point for the Yangtze River and Mount Tianzhu upon arrival.
Qiongzhou Strait
The sparkling blue waters separating Hainan Island from the Leizhou Peninsula on the Chinese mainland.
Luoxiao Mountains
Views of the high ridgelines and deep valleys that form the natural border between Hunan and Jiangxi.
Yangtze River Delta
The massive, winding Yangtze River with heavy shipping traffic as the flight approaches Anqing.
Mount Tianzhu
The granite peaks and scenic rock formations of Tianzhushan, the airport's namesake, visible during the descent.
Sit on the right for the best chance to see the Yangtze River's scale near Anqing. For morning flights, this side avoids the harsh sun. Watch for the dramatic change from the tropical coast to the temperate river valleys of Anhui.
Haikou Urban Skyline
Aerial views of Haikou's expanding city center and the Nandu River delta immediately after takeoff.
Nanling Mountains
The rugged terrain and dense forest cover of the mountain range bordering Guangdong and Jiangxi provinces.
Jiangxi Farmlands
A patchwork of agricultural fields and small villages throughout the central Chinese heartland.
The left side is preferable for late afternoon flights to witness the sunset over the inland mountain ranges. During the initial climb, look for the Nandu River as it flows into the sea.
