Which side of the plane to sit from Ningbo Lishe International Airport (Ninbo) to Singapore Changi Airport (Singapore)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior mix of mainland Chinese mountain ranges, the stunning coastline of Central Vietnam, and the iconic Singapore city skyline during the final approach.
Wuyi Mountains
The rugged, mist-covered peaks of Fujian province, known for their ancient tea plantations and dramatic topography.
Central Vietnam Coast
Breathtaking views of the coastline near Da Nang and the Marble Mountains as the flight path hugs the Indochinese Peninsula.
Mekong Delta
A complex network of brown silt-rich rivers and vibrant green rice paddies stretching toward the sea in Southern Vietnam.
Singapore Skyline
On many approach patterns (Runway 20), this side offers an unbeatable view of Marina Bay Sands and the downtown skyscrapers.
Johor Strait
Clear views of the causeway connecting Malaysia and Singapore during the northern approach.
Choose the right side for an afternoon flight to catch a spectacular sunset over the South China Sea. If the aircraft approaches Changi from the north, keep your camera ready for the Singapore CBD skyline. Keep an eye out for the distinctive coastline of Vietnam mid-flight, which is often visible on clear days.
East China Sea
Expansive views of the turquoise waters and coastal fishing fleets immediately following departure from Ningbo.
Paracel Islands
A glimpse of remote coral atolls and turquoise lagoons scattered throughout the South China Sea.
Singapore Anchorage
The incredible sight of hundreds of cargo ships and tankers queued in the strait, highlighting Singapore's role as a global maritime hub.
Pulau Ubin
Aerial views of the lush, rural island of Pulau Ubin just before touchdown at Changi Airport.
Sit on the left if you are flying during the morning to avoid the harsh glare of the sun. This side is excellent for spotting unique island formations in the South China Sea and provides a great perspective of the massive scale of the maritime traffic surrounding Singapore.
