Which side of the plane to sit from Luzhou Airport (Luzhou) to Haikou Meilan International Airport (Haikou)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side offers a spectacular perspective of the iconic karst topography of Southwest China and provides the most dramatic views of the Leizhou Peninsula and the Qiongzhou Strait during the descent into Hainan.
West Guizhou Karst
Some of the world's most dense and spectacular limestone pinnacle formations.
High-Altitude Bridges
Glimpses of record-breaking suspension bridges spanning the deep river valleys below.
Nanning Outskirts
The lush, tropical outskirts of Guangxi's capital city, marked by dense greenery.
Leizhou Peninsula
The 'toe' of mainland China, featuring red soil, salt pans, and volcanic craters.
Qiongzhou Strait
The busy shipping lane with ferries and cargo ships crossing the narrow gap to Hainan Island.
The right side is prime for late afternoon flights, offering golden hour views of the Qiongzhou Strait. Watch specifically for the Leizhou Peninsula's unique red earth and the massive sea-crossing ferry traffic just before entering Hainan airspace.
Guizhou Plateau Edge
Rugged limestone mountains and deep river incisions typical of the Guizhou-Guangxi border.
Liuzhou Basin
Views of the winding Liu River and the distinct karst hills that surround the urban center.
Guangxi Farmlands
Intricate patchwork of agricultural fields set between jagged limestone peaks.
Beibu Gulf Coastline
The transition from the green Guangxi hills to the muddy-blue waters of the northern Gulf.
Haikou Cityscape
Aerial view of the northern urban sprawl and the Meilan district during final approach.
Choose a morning flight for the best lighting on the Guizhou mountains without solar glare. This side is also superior for viewing the expansion of Haikou's new eastern districts as the plane turns for its final landing sequence.
