Which side of the plane to sit from Shanghai Pudong International Airport (Shanghai) to Zhuhai Jinwan Airport (Zhuhai)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides a superior vantage point for the scenic coastline of Southeast China and the iconic landmarks of the Pearl River Delta, including Macau and the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge during descent.
Zhoushan Archipelago
A stunning view of thousands of small islands and fishing villages off the coast of Ningbo shortly after takeoff.
Taiwan Strait Coastline
Dramatic views where the rugged mountains of Fujian meet the blue waters of the East China Sea.
Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge
The world's longest sea-crossing bridge, visible as a massive white thread snaking across the ocean.
Macau Peninsula
Clear views of the Grand Lisboa and the Macau Tower as the plane maneuvers for its final approach.
Zhuhai Coastline
The 'City of Romance' waterfront, featuring the Zhuhai Opera House and lush coastal parks.
The right side is the undisputed winner for the approach into Zhuhai; try to book an afternoon flight for warm, golden-hour lighting on the Macau skyline. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes before landing for the bridge views.
Shanghai Urban Sprawl
Aerial view of the massive industrial and residential districts of Pudong and the Nanhui New City area.
Zhejiang Ranges
The rugged, mist-covered mountain peaks of southern Zhejiang and northern Fujian provinces.
Shenzhen Skyline
The dense skyscraper clusters of the world-leading tech hub of Shenzhen appearing as you near the destination.
Pearl River Delta
A complex network of waterways, estuaries, and one of the world's most productive industrial landscapes.
For morning flights, the left side is preferable to avoid the direct glare of the eastern sun. During landing, watch for the dense logistics hubs and ports that characterize the eastern bank of the Pearl River.
