SIN β CAN
Which side of the plane to sit from Singapore Changi Airport (Singapore) to Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport (Guangzhou)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side is highly recommended for its spectacular approach over the Pearl River Delta, offering views of the world's most densely populated urban areas and the massive Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge.
Singapore Strait
A bird's-eye view of hundreds of cargo ships and tankers anchored in one of the world's busiest lanes.
South China Sea
Vast blue expanses occasionally dotted with remote atolls and coral reefs.
Pearl River Delta
An incredible view of the continuous urban sprawl including Hong Kong, Shenzhen, and Zhuhai.
HZMB Bridge
The massive 55km bridge-tunnel system connecting Hong Kong, Zhuhai, and Macau.
Canton Tower
If the flight approaches from the south, look for the iconic 'Slim Waist' tower in the heart of Guangzhou.
The right side is essential for seeing the Pearl River Delta's infrastructure. On night flights, the sea of city lights is breathtaking. Sit ahead of the wing to ensure the engine doesn't block your view of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge during descent.
Singapore Skyline
Clear views of Marina Bay Sands and the downtown financial district shortly after takeoff.
Tioman Island
A beautiful emerald-green island off the coast of Malaysia visible during the initial cruise.
Annamite Range
The rugged, mist-covered mountain peaks along the border of Vietnam and Laos.
Western Hainan
The lush, mountainous interior and western coastline of China's largest tropical island.
Leizhou Peninsula
Unique red earth landscapes and geometric agricultural patterns of southern Guangdong province.
Opt for the left side on late afternoon flights to enjoy a sunset over the South China Sea. This side also provides the best perspective of the Vietnamese coastline if the flight path follows a more westerly route due to weather.
