Mekong Floodplains
The intricate, geometric patterns of rice paddies and irrigation canals stretching across the Cambodian lowlands.
Central Vietnam Coast
Distant but beautiful views of the South China Sea coastline near the Hue and Da Nang regions.
Gulf of Tonkin
The blue expanse of the gulf and the industrial ports of southern China as you approach the Guangxi coastline.
Nanning Karst Peaks
The iconic 'sugarloaf' limestone mountains of Guangxi, which provide a stunning backdrop during the final approach.
The final 20 minutes of the flight are the most critical; the descent into Nanning offers world-class views of limestone karst formations. Afternoon flights are ideal for this side, as the sun will be positioned to highlight the textures of the mountain peaks.

Phnom Penh Skyline
A bird's-eye view of the capital city and the confluence of the Mekong and Tonle Sap rivers shortly after takeoff.
Upper Mekong River
Follow the winding course of the mighty Mekong as it snakes through northern Cambodia and into the mountains.
Annamite Range
View the rugged, cloud-shrouded mountain ridges that form the natural border between Laos and Vietnam.
Pingxiang Highlands
Observation of the jagged limestone terrain as the flight crosses the international border into Chinese airspace.
Choose the left side for morning departures to keep the sun behind the aircraft, ensuring better visibility of the dense forest canopies. This side is particularly scenic during the first half of the flight as you track the river systems north.
