Our Recommendation
8.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side of the aircraft offers spectacular views of the South China Sea coastline, the Pearl River Delta's complex infrastructure, and the bustling port cities of Guangdong and Fujian.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🌉

Pearl River Estuary

Aerial view of the massive estuary, including the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge in the distance.

🌆

Shenzhen Coastal Skyline

Dense clusters of skyscrapers lining the coast near the Nanshan and Futian districts.

🏝️

Daya Bay

Beautiful coastal scenery featuring deep blue bays and rocky inlets near Huizhou.

🚢

Shantou Port

The busy shipping lanes and harbor infrastructure of eastern Guangdong.

🌊

Taiwan Strait Approach

Sweeping views of the ocean as the plane descends towards the historic port of Quanzhou.

For the best experience, book an afternoon flight to see the sun reflecting off the South China Sea. On a clear day, you can see the massive scale of China's coastal development. Keep your camera ready about 40-50 minutes into the flight for the best urban shots over the Pearl River Delta.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
⛰️

Guangxi Karst Peaks

Dotted limestone formations and lush green hills immediately after takeoff from Nanning.

🏙️

Foshan and Guangzhou North

The sprawling urban landscape of the northern Pearl River Delta region.

🏞️

Lianhua Mountain Range

Significant mountain ridges stretching across eastern Guangdong province.

🌲

Fujian Interior Highlands

Dense forest cover and rolling hills as the flight enters Fujian's mountainous terrain.

Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the direct southern sun. Look out for the intricate river networks of the Xijiang River shortly after departure. In winter, this side offers a clearer view of the mountainous cloud-sea formations over the Fujian-Guangdong border.
