KWE → HAK
Which side of the plane to sit from Longdongbao Airport (Guiyang) to Haikou Meilan International Airport (Haikou)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the dramatic karst topography of Guangxi and a stunning perspective of the Leizhou Peninsula meeting the Beibu Gulf before descending into Haikou.
Karst Formations
Dramatic limestone 'forests' and jagged peaks of northern Guangxi, resembling traditional ink paintings.
Beibu Gulf
Expansive views of the turquoise waters where the mainland coast curves westward.
Leizhou West Coast
Pristine coastal lines and salt fields along the western edge of the Leizhou Peninsula.
Haikou City
A panoramic view of the Haikou waterfront and the Evergreen Park area during the final approach.
Excellent for late afternoon flights to witness the sunset over the Beibu Gulf. Seats toward the back of the wing are best to keep the dramatic Guangxi mountain ranges in full view without engine obstruction.
Guiyang Skyline
A unique urban landscape of skyscrapers built directly into the steep karst hills upon departure.
Guizhou Plateau
Dense, rolling green mountains typical of the Yungui Plateau region.
Zhanjiang Port
Views of the industrial infrastructure and large cargo ships near the tip of the mainland.
Qiongzhou Strait
Watch for the train ferries and high-speed vessels crossing between the mainland and Hainan.
Recommended for morning flights to enjoy the sunrise reflecting off the South China Sea. Look out for the massive Zhanjiang Bay Bridge as the plane begins its descent toward the island.
