Macau Cotai Strip
A brilliant view of the massive casino resorts and the Macau Tower immediately after takeoff from MFM.
Da Nang Coastline
The dramatic meeting of the mountains and the sea near Son Tra Peninsula in Central Vietnam.
Mekong Delta
A sprawling network of silt-brown rivers and vibrant green rice paddies in Southern Vietnam.
Gulf of Thailand
Clear views of the blue expanse as the plane crosses from Vietnam towards the Malay Peninsula.
KL Skyline
On a clear day and depending on the landing direction, the Petronas Twin Towers and KL Tower may be visible in the distance.
For the best photography, choose a morning flight so the sun is behind the aircraft, illuminating the Vietnamese coast. Request a seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat haze obscuring the view of the Mekong Delta's intricate waterways.
