Our Recommendation
7.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides the most dramatic views of the Yangtze River and the interconnected lakes of Wuhan during the approach, plus a clearer view of the Incheon Bridge at takeoff.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🌉

Incheon Grand Bridge

A stunning view of the 21km cable-stayed bridge connecting Yeongjong Island to the mainland.

🌊

Yellow Sea Crossing

Deep blue waters transitioning into the silt-rich coastal waters of China's eastern seaboard.

〰️

Yangtze River Basin

The winding path of Asia's longest river as it flows through the fertile plains of Hubei.

🏙️

Wuhan City Center

A panoramic view of the 'Chicago of China' with its high-density skyscraper clusters.

🏞️

East Lake (Donghu)

One of the largest urban lakes in China, visible as a massive green and blue lung in the city.

Opt for the left side on morning flights to have the sun behind the aircraft, providing perfect lighting for the Yangtze River crossing. During the final 20 minutes of flight, keep your camera ready for the contrast between the industrial zones and the vast lake systems of Wuhan.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
🏝️

Gyeonggi Bay Islands

A bird's-eye view of the numerous small islands and mudflats scattered along the Korean coast.

⛰️

Dabie Mountains

Rugged, forested mountain peaks that mark the transition into central China's geography.

🚜

Anhui Farmlands

A mesmerizing geometric pattern of agricultural plots stretching to the horizon.

🛫

Wuhan Tianhe Northern Approach

Views of the airport's surrounding logistics hubs and the northern suburban landscape.

The right side is ideal for catching the initial climb out of Incheon over the scenic mudflats. If flying in autumn, the Dabie Mountains offer beautiful color changes. Note that this side may experience significant glare during late afternoon flights as you head West-Southwest.
