MFM → WUX
Which side of the plane to sit from Macau International Airport (Macau) to Sunan Shuofang International Airport (Wuxi)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior vantage point for the Macau and Zhuhai skylines during departure and provides the most direct views of the massive Taihu Lake during the final approach into Wuxi.
Macau Peninsula & Zhuhai
Dramatic views of the Macau Tower, the historic center, and the modern skyline of Zhuhai's Gongbei district immediately after takeoff.
Nanling Mountains
The flight path traverses the rugged, lush green mountain ranges of northern Guangdong and southern Jiangxi provinces.
Taihu Lake
As the aircraft descends into Wuxi, the left side offers a sprawling view of Lake Tai, China's third-largest freshwater lake.
Yangtze River Delta Plains
A dense network of canals, small rivers, and intensive agricultural patches characteristic of the Jiangnan region.
For the best experience, choose a window seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat haze. On departure, look out immediately for the Cotai Strip casinos. During the final 15 minutes of flight, keep your camera ready for the vast waters of Taihu Lake, which looks particularly stunning during the 'Golden Hour' before sunset.
Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge
The world's longest sea-crossing bridge is visible snaking across the Pearl River Estuary shortly after departure.
Pearl River Estuary
Observe one of the world's busiest maritime corridors with hundreds of cargo ships and ferries visible below.
Suzhou Skyline
On the approach to Wuxi, the neighboring high-rise developments and the 'Gate to the East' skyscraper in Suzhou may be visible.
Wuyi Mountains
Distant views of the forested ridges of the Wuyi mountain range during the mid-flight cruise over Fujian.
The right side is excellent for early morning flights as you will be facing away from the direct glare of the sun while flying north. Look for the massive bridge infrastructure early in the flight. During winter months, visibility is often better on this side looking toward the coast, though haze can sometimes obscure the ground near industrial zones.
