Which side of the plane to sit from Jining Qufu Airport (Jining) to Zhoushuizi Airport (Dalian)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior panoramic perspective of the central Shandong mountain ranges, the iconic Miaodao Archipelago stretching across the Bohai Strait, and a spectacular urban approach into the coastal city of Dalian.

Weishan Lake
Brief views of the northern tip of the Nansi Lake system shortly after takeoff from Jining.
Shandong Highlands
Dramatic views of the rugged, terraced hills and valleys of central and eastern Shandong Province.
Miaodao Archipelago
A stunning string of islands forming a natural bridge across the Bohai Strait between Yantai and Dalian.
Xinghai Bay Bridge
The massive cross-sea bridge and Dalian's modern coastal skyline during the final descent into Zhoushuizi.
Yellow Sea Coast
The rugged, indented coastline of the Liaodong Peninsula meeting the clear waters of the Yellow Sea.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to avoid direct sunlight and capture the best colors of the Miaodao Islands. During the approach to Dalian, this side usually provides a direct view of the city's impressive high-rises and the Xinghai Square area if the wind necessitates a northern landing pattern.

Jining Cityscape
Aerial view of Jining's urban grid and the ancient Grand Canal sections upon departure.
Mount Tai Slopes
Distant views of the northern ridges belonging to the sacred Mount Tai massif in central Shandong.
Bohai Bay
The expansive waters of the Bohai Sea opening up to the northwest as the plane heads towards the peninsula.
Lushun Port
The historic naval base and mountainous terrain of the Lushun district at the very tip of the Liaodong Peninsula.
Sit on the left for softer lighting during morning flights. Keep an eye out for the distinct transition from the muddy waters of the Yellow River delta region to the deep blue of the Bohai Sea. This side is better for spotting large cargo vessels entering the Bohai Rim ports.
