Which side of the plane to sit from Longdongbao Airport (Guiyang) to Zhuhai Jinwan Airport (Zhuhai)?

Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior view of the Pearl River Delta's massive urbanization and the Macau skyline during the final descent into Zhuhai.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏙️

Guiyang Skyline

View the high-rises of Guiyang nestled between the lush green hills of the Guizhou plateau during departure.

⛰️

Nanling Mountains

The flight crosses the border into Guangdong over these dense, fog-prone mountain ridges and deep valleys.

🏗️

Pearl River Delta

Observe the massive industrial expansion and complex shipping lanes of the world's most populous urban area.

🎰

Macau Peninsula

Spot the iconic Grand Lisboa, Macau Tower, and casino strip as you descend into the Zhuhai area.

🌉

Sea Crossing Bridge

The Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge is often visible stretching like a needle across the Lingdingyang waters.

Sit on the left for the best views of the Macau skyline and the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge during the descent. For late afternoon flights, this side avoids direct sun glare, making it ideal for photography. Visibility is highest during the dry autumn months.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
🧗

Karst Topography

Peer down at the unique cone-shaped limestone hills characteristic of the Guizhou and Guangxi landscape.

🌊

Xi Jiang River

A major tributary of the Pearl River winding through the agricultural greenery of western Guangdong province.

🏭

Jiangmen Urban Area

Vast industrial districts and dense residential blocks mark the transition from rural to coastal terrain.

🏖️

Silver Bay Coast

Scenic views of the beaches, Tangjiawan area, and the Sun Yat-sen University campus near the shoreline.

🛥️

Gaolan Port

Large-scale infrastructure including massive cranes and container ships at one of the region's busiest ports.

The right side provides the best perspective of the unique Karst mountains in the first 20 minutes of the flight. Morning flights are ideal as the sun will be on the opposite side, providing clear light for the landscape. Watch for the coastline just before touchdown.
