Our Recommendation
8.2

Right Side of the Plane

While both sides offer diverse landscapes, the right side provides superior views of the East China Sea islands, the rugged Sikhote-Alin mountain range in Russia, and the expansive Amur River confluence upon approach to Khabarovsk.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
⛰️

Taiwan Strait

Distances views of the high peaks of the Taiwan Central Mountain Range if visibility is high.

🏝️

Zhoushan Archipelago

A cluster of thousands of islands scattered across the blue waters of the East China Sea.

🏔️

Sikhote-Alin Mountains

Dramatic views of the UNESCO-listed mountain range, home to the Siberian Tiger, as you enter Russian airspace.

🚢

Amur River Confluence

The spectacular meeting point of the Amur and Ussuri rivers near the final approach to Khabarovsk.

The right side is prime for mountain enthusiasts; the Sikhote-Alin range is a highlight in the final hour of flight. On arrival, this side usually offers a better view of Khabarovsk city and the historic Khabarovsk Bridge. Afternoon flights may experience some glare from the west, so keep your window shade ready.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🏙️

Pearl River Delta

Bird's-eye view of the massive urban sprawl of Shenzhen and Dongguan shortly after takeoff.

🌊

Yangtze River Delta

The vast, sediment-heavy mouth of Asia's longest river meeting the East China Sea near Shanghai.

🇰🇷

Korean West Coast

Intricate tidal mudflats and numerous small islands along the western coastline of the Korean Peninsula.

🌲

Manchurian Plains

The transition from the industrial hubs of Northeast China to the dense, rolling forests of the Russian border.

Sit on the left for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. This side is ideal for spotting the transition from China's dense megalopolises to the sparsely populated Siberian taiga. Keep a lookout for the frozen landscape of the Amur-Heilong river border during winter months.
