HAN → BMV
Which side of the plane to sit from Noi Bai International Airport (Hanoi) to Buon Ma Thuot Airport (Buonmethuot)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the majestic Truong Son mountain range and the dramatic elevation changes as the flight moves into the Central Highlands.
Truong Son Mountains
Stunning views of the Annamite Range's ridgelines and the dense tropical forests along the Laos border.
Ho Chi Minh Highway
The legendary road winding through rugged mountain passes and remote highland valleys.
Yok Don National Park
Aerial views of one of Vietnam's largest protected areas, featuring unique dry deciduous forests.
Serepok River
Follow the winding path of the river and look for the mist rising from the Dray Nur and Dray Sap waterfalls during descent.
Afternoon flights are spectacular on this side as the sun sets over the mountains. Pay close attention during the final 10 minutes of flight for a chance to see the powerful waterfalls near Buon Ma Thuot.
Red River Delta
A panoramic view of Hanoi's urban sprawl and the intricate river systems surrounding the capital.
Trang An Karst
Spot the UNESCO-listed limestone peaks of Ninh Binh province rising sharply from the flat plains.
Central Coastline
Distant glimpses of the coastline and the South China Sea as the flight path parallels the shore.
Coffee Estates
A patchwork of vast coffee and rubber plantations that define the landscape of the Dak Lak plateau.
For the best visibility without sun glare, book an early morning flight. The transition from the low-lying delta to the high plateaus is most noticeable about 30 minutes into the journey.
