LYI → NAY
Which side of the plane to sit from Shubuling Airport (Linyi) to Beijing Nanyuan Airport (Beijing)?
Left Side of the Plane
The Left Side is preferred for its views of the inland topography, including the distant silhouettes of the Taihang Mountains and a better angle for observing the sprawling agricultural patterns of the North China Plain without the morning glare from the sea.

A clear view of the Lanshan district and the massive wholesale markets that define the city's economy shortly after takeoff.
Mount Tai Silhouette
On exceptionally clear days, the sacred peak of Mount Tai may be visible on the western horizon as you fly north.

Book a window seat on the left for morning flights (08:00 - 11:00) to keep the sun behind you, providing optimal lighting for photography of the agricultural patterns. Look for the distinct change in soil color as you move deeper into the North China Plain.
