Ningbo-Zhoushan Port

Zhoushan Sea-Crossing Bridges

The right side is the definitive choice for scenic seekers. During the final 20 minutes of the flight, the plane maneuvers over the Zhoushan islands; look for the distinct emerald water and rocky outcrops. For the best photography, an afternoon flight provides excellent lighting on the islands, though you should be prepared for some sun glare during the cruise phase.
