Which side of the plane to sit from Macau International Airport (Macau) to Singapore Changi Airport (Singapore)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers spectacular views of the rugged Vietnamese coastline and the tropical islands of Malaysia before the descent into Singapore.
Macau Cotai Strip
A stunning view of the massive resort complexes and the Macau Tower immediately after takeoff.
Da Nang Coastline
The dramatic Son Tra Peninsula and the long sandy beaches of Central Vietnam.
Cam Ranh Bay
One of the finest deep-water shelters in Southeast Asia, known for its pristine blue waters.
Tioman Island
A densely forested, tear-shaped island off the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia.
Singapore City Skyline
Depending on the wind direction, the final approach may offer views of Marina Bay Sands and the CBD.
Sit on the right side for the best land-based landmarks. Book a morning flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the Vietnamese coast in vibrant detail. During the final descent into SIN, keep your camera ready for the contrast between the green islands and the ultra-modern skyline.
Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge
Visible shortly after takeoff, this engineering marvel stretches across the Pearl River Delta.
South China Sea
Vast turquoise waters and occasional remote atolls visible during the cruise phase.
Singapore Strait Shipping
Hundreds of massive cargo ships and tankers anchored in the world's busiest shipping lane.
Bintan Island
Part of the Indonesian Riau Archipelago, visible on the final approach into Changi.
The left side is best for night flights to see the shimmering lights of the massive cargo fleet anchored outside Singapore. For daylight flights, the sun is often on this side during southbound afternoon trips, so keep the window shade down if you want to avoid glare.
