Our Recommendation
8.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior mix of urban landscapes, the transition from the North China Plain to the rugged mountains of Zhejiang, and a clearer view of the Yangtze River crossing.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
⛰️

Lianyungang Peaks

The scenic mountainous terrain surrounding the coastal city of Lianyungang in northern Jiangsu.

🌾

Jiangsu Water Networks

A complex grid of canals, rivers, and rice paddies characteristic of the southern Yangtze region.

🏙️

Suzhou and Wuxi

Dense urban clusters and the sprawling industrial parks of the southern Yangtze Delta.

🏔️

Zhejiang Highlands

Dramatic mountain ridges and deep green valleys as you move into southern Zhejiang province.

🏘️

Wenzhou Mountain Basins

The unique sight of Wenzhou's urban density nestled tightly between sharp mountain peaks.

Sit on the right for the best views of the Zhejiang mountains during descent. This side is also better for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh reflection of the sun on the East China Sea. Look for the Grand Canal as it winds through the Jiangsu plains during the middle of the flight.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
🌊

Yellow Sea Coastline

Expansive views of the shimmering Yellow Sea shortly after takeoff from Qingdao.

🦆

Yancheng Wetlands

The vast coastal marshes and conservation areas of Jiangsu, home to rare migratory birds.

🌉

Yangtze River Mouth

The massive estuary where the Yangtze meets the sea, often showing a clear sediment line.

🏝️

Zhoushan Archipelago

Distant views of the numerous islands scattered off the coast of Ningbo.

🚢

Wenzhou Bay

Busy shipping lanes and port infrastructure as the aircraft begins its final descent.

The left side is excellent for catching the sunrise on early morning flights. Keep an eye out for the distinct color change in the water near the Yangtze River Delta. During mid-day, glare from the sea can be intense, so keep your window shade partially down if needed.
