Which side of the plane to sit from Haikou Meilan International Airport (Haikou) to Wenzhou Longwan International Airport (Wenzhou)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers a spectacular panoramic view of the South China Sea and the East China Sea coastline, including several major island chains and bustling port cities.
Qiongzhou Strait
A clear view of the narrow waterway separating Hainan Island from the Chinese mainland shortly after takeoff.
Shantou Coastline
The urban sprawl of Shantou and the massive bridge connecting to the scenic Nan'ao Island.
Xiamen Archipelago
One of the flight's highlights, featuring the iconic Gulangyu Island and Xiamen's distinct coastal skyline.
Quanzhou & Meizhou Bay
Vibrant port activity and large ships visible in the industrial bays of Fujian province.
Min River Estuary
The massive opening of the Min River near Fuzhou as it flows into the East China Sea.
Dongtou Islands
A beautiful cluster of islands and coastal bridges visible during the low-altitude approach into Wenzhou.
The right side is the definitive choice for maritime and coastal enthusiasts. For the best photography of Xiamen and the islands, book an afternoon flight when the sun is in the west, providing perfect front-lighting for the coastline. Watch for the Dongtou islands just minutes before touchdown.
Haikou Urban Area
Excellent views of Haikou's northern city districts and the Meilan area during the initial climb.
Fujian Highlands
Observation of the dense, green mountain ranges of inland Fujian, including the foothills of the Wuyi mountains.
Han River Delta
View of the intricate river networks near Chaozhou and the agricultural plains of eastern Guangdong.
Oujiang River Valley
The winding Oujiang river and the rugged mountainous terrain surrounding Wenzhou during the final descent.
Choose the left side for dramatic mountain scenery and inland city views. Morning flights are ideal as the sun illuminates the western peaks without causing significant glare on your window.
