Which side of the plane to sit from Macau International Airport (Macau) to Muan International Airport (Muan)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the diverse landscapes, including the Hong Kong coastline shortly after takeoff, distant views of Taiwan, and the spectacular volcanic topography of Jeju Island during the descent into South Korea.
Hong Kong Island
Spectacular views of Lantau Island and the distant Hong Kong skyline immediately after departure from Macau.
Taiwan Strait
Clear views of the blue waters separating the mainland from Taiwan, with the Penghu Islands sometimes visible.
Northern Taiwan
The dramatic silhouette of Taiwan's Central Mountain Range can be seen on clear days to the east.
Jeju Island
The iconic shield volcano, Mount Hallasan, is a primary landmark as the flight nears the Korean Peninsula.
Dadohaehaesang
Breathtaking views of the 'Sea of Many Islands' National Park during the approach into Muan International Airport.
For the best experience, choose a morning flight to have the sun behind you while viewing Taiwan and Jeju. The descent into Muan is particularly scenic on this side as the plane maneuvers over the hundreds of small, forested islands of the South Sea. Be sure to look for the distinct emerald green color of the shallow waters near the Korean coast.
Pearl River Delta
The massive urban sprawl of Shenzhen and Dongguan is visible shortly after departure from Macau.
Fujian Highlands
Rugged coastal mountains of southeastern China provide a textured landscape for the middle segment of the flight.
Ningbo Port
A glimpse of the industrial scale and massive container terminals near the mouth of the Yangtze River delta.
East China Sea
Expansive views of the ocean where you can often spot large commercial shipping lanes and fishing fleets.
Jeollanam-do Coast
The rugged, indented coastline of South Korea's southwestern tip as the aircraft begins its final descent.
The left side is preferable for afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. Keep an eye out for the massive bridge networks connecting the islands of the Pearl River Delta shortly after takeoff from MFM. During the descent, look for the unique tidal flats that characterize the western Korean coast.
