Which side of the plane to sit from Hefei Luogang International Airport (Hefei) to Zhuhai Jinwan Airport (Zhuhai)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a superior perspective of the Yangtze River crossing, the vast Poyang Lake, and the sprawling urban landscape of the eastern Pearl River Delta.
Yangtze River Crossing
Witness the immense scale of China's longest river and the complex bridge networks near Anqing shortly after departure.
Poyang Lake
View the intricate wetlands and vast waters of China's largest freshwater lake, which changes dramatically with the seasons.
Meiling Scenery
Lush green ridgelines and traditional villages dotting the central Jiangxi countryside from a high altitude.
Shenzhen Skyline
On clear days, the dense cluster of skyscrapers in the distance marks the entry to the southern coastal economic zone.
Pearl River Estuary
A bird's eye view of one of the world's busiest shipping lanes and the eastern delta's artificial islands.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid direct sun glare. Look out for Poyang Lake approximately 35 minutes after takeoff; the water levels vary drastically between summer floods and winter dry spells, offering a different landscape throughout the year.
Dabie Mountains
Rugged terrain and high peaks of the Anhui-Hubei border visible during the initial southward climb.
Lushan National Park
The famous UNESCO-listed peaks of Jiujiang, often draped in mist, visible to the west of the flight path.
Nanling Range
The dense forest-covered mountains that form the natural border between Jiangxi and Guangdong provinces.
HZMB Bridge
A spectacular view of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge structure stretching across the sea during final descent.
Macau Peninsula
The dense, casino-filled skyline of Macau and the Cotai Strip as the flight prepares to land at Jinwan.
The right side is ideal for late afternoon flights to witness the sunset over the Nanling mountains. During the final 10 minutes of the flight, keep your camera ready for the Macau skyline and the world's longest sea-crossing bridge, especially if the plane is landing from the north.
