Which side of the plane to sit from Tan Son Nhat International Airport (Ho Chi Minh City) to Dong Tac Airport (Tuy Hoa)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers breathtaking panoramas of Vietnam's South Central Coast, featuring deep blue bays, white sand beaches, and the dramatic cliffs of Vung Ro Bay during the final approach.
Mui Ne Sand Dunes
The unique coastal sand dunes and the Phan Thiet coastline visible as the plane tracks north along the sea.
Cam Ranh Bay
One of the world's finest deep-water harbors, featuring turquoise waters and complex naval infrastructure.
Nha Trang Bay
Clear views of the Hon Tre island and the surrounding archipelago of one of the world's most beautiful bays.
Vung Ro Bay
A stunning, sheltered bay with dramatic rocky outcrops and emerald water just south of the Tuy Hoa airport.
Nhan Tower
A glimpse of the ancient Cham temple sitting on a hill near the Da Rang River as the plane prepares to land.
The right side is the clear winner for coastal scenery. Choose a morning flight for the best sun positioning on the ocean; afternoon flights may experience some glare. On the final descent into Tuy Hoa, look for the 'Sleeping Elephant' mountain and the iconic Mui Dien lighthouse protruding into the sea.
Ho Chi Minh City Skyline
Aerial view of the sprawling metropolis and the Saigon River winding through the urban landscape immediately after takeoff.
Tri An Reservoir
A massive man-made lake on the Dong Nai River, surrounded by lush greenery and small rural settlements.
Southern Annamite Range
The rugged, forested foothills and peaks of the Truong Son Mountains that mark the edge of the Central Highlands.
Cat Tien National Park
Expansive views of one of Vietnam's largest tropical rainforest areas, showcasing a dense canopy of biodiversity.
Sit on the left for views of the rising terrain and highland plateaus. Morning flights are ideal to avoid the afternoon mountain mist that can obscure the peaks. Keep an eye out for the distinct red soil characteristic of the Central Highlands transition zone.
