Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side of the aircraft offers a superior scenic experience, featuring expansive views of the South China Sea islands and the world-renowned karst mountain formations of Guangxi province during the approach into Guiyang.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏝️

South China Sea Islands

Aerial views of remote island clusters and coral reefs in the turquoise waters south of Vietnam.

🏖️

Vietnamese Coastline

Detailed views of the central coast of Vietnam, including the area around Da Nang and the Marble Mountains.

⛰️

Guilin Karst Peaks

Spectacular limestone 'sugarloaf' mountains that define the landscape of southern China.

🌊

Li River

The winding silver thread of the Li River carving through the dramatic karst topography.

🌄

Guizhou Highlands

Deep-cut valleys and terraced agriculture as the flight descends into the mountainous Guiyang region.

The right side is essential for seeing the famous karst mountains of Guilin and Yangshuo. About 45-60 minutes before landing, the terrain becomes exceptionally dramatic. Late autumn offers the clearest skies for these views. Avoid seats over the wing to ensure an unobstructed downward view of the mountain peaks.

🏙️

Singapore Skyline

Excellent views of the Marina Bay Sands and the CBD shortly after a northbound takeoff.

🚢

Strait of Malacca

Observation of the massive maritime traffic and cargo ships anchored off the coast of Singapore.

🌳

Cardamom Mountains

The lush, dense tropical rainforests of southwestern Cambodia visible mid-flight.

🏞️

Mekong River

A glimpse of the mighty Mekong as it winds through the Indochinese landscape.

Choose the left side for morning departures to have the sun behind you, providing better lighting for the Singapore skyline. Keep an eye out for the rugged terrain of northern Laos as you enter Chinese airspace.
