KWE → CKG
Which side of the plane to sit from Longdongbao Airport (Guiyang) to Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport (Chongqing)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the dramatic Wujiang River canyons and the UNESCO-listed Jinfo Mountain as you approach the Chongqing municipality.
Wujiang River Canyons
The turquoise waters of the Wujiang River carving through steep, dramatic limestone cliffs below the flight path.
Jinfo Mountain
The massive, flat-topped UNESCO World Heritage mountain range known for its 'Golden Buddha' appearance at sunset.
Yangtze River Crossing
Spectacular views of the mighty Yangtze River and its numerous suspension bridges during the final descent into CKG.
Chongqing Skyline
Panoramic views of the 'Mountain City' with its towering skyscrapers and the confluence of rivers if approaching from the south.
Request a window seat on the right for the best chance to see Jinfo Mountain. For morning flights, this side may experience glare, so polarized sunglasses are recommended to see the river details clearly.
Guiyang Cityscape
Aerial view of the 'Forest City' urban density nestled between lush green karst hills shortly after takeoff.
Zunyi Urban Area
The historic city of Zunyi, a pivotal site in Chinese history, visible mid-flight through the mountainous terrain.
Loushan Pass
Dramatic ridges and deep valleys of the Loushan Mountain range, known for its challenging terrain and historic significance.
Qijiang District
The transition from Guizhou's high plateau to the lower, more industrialized basins of southern Chongqing.
Sit toward the front to avoid wing obstruction when viewing the Zunyi skyline. Afternoon flights are ideal for the left side as the sun will be behind you, highlighting the green hues of the karst mountains.
