Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior perspective of China's iconic river crossings and the dramatic transition from the North China Plain to the rugged, forested mountains of Fujian.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏯

Beijing Cityscape

A clear view of the capital's organized grid and landmarks like the Olympic Park if departing south.

🌊

Yellow River Crossing

The wide, silt-heavy 'Mother River' of China cutting through the agricultural heartland.

🌉

Yangtze River Delta

Aerial views of the massive Yangtze River and the intricate network of canals near the Nanjing-Suzhou corridor.

⛰️

Fujian Highlands

The dramatic shift to lush, verdant mountain ridges and deep valleys as the flight enters the Min River basin.

The best choice for afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. Pay close attention during the final 30 minutes of the flight as the terrain shifts from flat plains to the mist-covered peaks characteristic of southern China.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🏙️

Tianjin Urban Area

A sprawling view of the northern port city and the Hai River industrial zone shortly after takeoff.

🌊

Bohai Bay Coastline

The sweeping curve where the North China Plain meets the yellow-tinted waters of the Bohai Sea.

🛳️

Ningbo-Zhoushan Port

Aerial views of one of the world's busiest container ports and the dense maritime traffic of the East China Sea.

🏝️

Zhejiang Archipelago

Clusters of small islands and aquaculture farms dotting the coastline as the plane nears Fujian.

Ideal for early morning departures to witness the sunrise over the Pacific horizon. This side is also better for spotting the massive scale of coastal urbanization and industrial development along the eastern seaboard.
