Which side of the plane to sit from Gimhae International Airport (Busan) to Hong Kong International Airport (Hong Kong)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers spectacular views of the rugged Taiwan Central Mountain Range and a more scenic approach into Hong Kong, often passing over the lush Sai Kung Peninsula and Victoria Harbour.

Taiwan Central Range
If the flight path stays east of the Taiwan Strait, you get a front-row seat to the 3,000m+ peaks of Taiwan's spine.
East China Sea
Expansive views of the deep blue waters and various shipping lanes connecting major East Asian ports.
Sai Kung Islands
Upon arrival, enjoy the emerald green islands and volcanic rock formations of the UNESCO Global Geopark.
Victoria Harbour
During standard easterly approaches (Runway 25L/R), you may catch a glimpse of the iconic Hong Kong skyline.
Request a window seat away from the wing for unobstructed views of Taiwan's mountains. This side is particularly beautiful on morning flights when the sun illuminates the peaks. During the descent into HKG, keep your camera ready for the contrast between the green hills of the New Territories and the dense urban sprawl.

Korean Archipelago
Immediate views of the thousands of small islands dotting the southern coast of South Korea after takeoff.
Fujian Coastline
Detailed views of mainland China's jagged coastline, including major industrial ports like Xiamen and Quanzhou.
HZMB Bridge
Clear views of the world's longest sea-crossing bridge connecting Hong Kong, Zhuhai, and Macau during final approach.
Pearl River Delta
Witness the massive scale of urbanization as the flight enters the airspace near Shenzhen and Dongguan.
The right side is ideal for sunset flights, as you can watch the sun dip below the horizon over mainland China. It also provides the best perspective of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge and the airport's massive third runway reclamation project just before touchdown.
