Central Mountain Range
Dramatic views of Taiwan's high-altitude peaks shortly after takeoff from Taoyuan.
Central Vietnam Coast
Bird's-eye view of the turquoise waters and white sands near Da Nang and the Marble Mountains.

Mekong River
The winding brown ribbons of the Mekong and its tributaries as you enter Cambodian airspace.
Tonle Sap Lake
Southeast Asia's largest freshwater lake, featuring floating villages visible during the final approach.
Book a window seat on the left for the best views of Tonle Sap. During morning flights, the sun is on the left side, so keep the window shade partially down until you cross the Vietnamese coast to avoid glare. The lake view is most impressive during the monsoon season (June-October) when the water level is high.

The right side is ideal for afternoon flights as you will be facing away from the direct sun.

Keep an eye out for small local pagodas with distinct orange roofs dotting the countryside.
