TPE → SIN
Which side of the plane to sit from Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport (Taipei) to Singapore Changi Airport (Singapore)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side offers a superior perspective of Taiwan's western coastline upon departure and provides the most iconic views of the Singapore skyline and the Johor Strait during the final approach.
Western Taiwan Coast
Dense urban sprawl and industrial ports along the Taiwan Strait immediately after leaving TPE.
Paracel Islands
Remote white-sand atolls surrounded by vibrant coral lagoons visible in the mid-flight phase.
Vietnam Coastline
Distant views of the central Vietnamese coast and the South China Sea horizon.
Johor River Delta
The winding waterways and mangrove forests of southern Malaysia near the border.
Singapore Skyline
Breathtaking views of Marina Bay Sands, the CBD, and the Singapore Flyer during a Northern approach.
Choose the right side for spectacular sunset views over the open sea on evening flights. On a standard arrival from the north (Runway 20L/20C), this side typically offers the best view of the Singapore city skyline and the Tuas Megaport.
Taiwan Central Range
Dramatic views of the rugged, forested peaks of central Taiwan shortly after takeoff.
Luzon Strait
The deep blue waters of the passage between Taiwan and the Philippines.
Spratly Islands
Occasional distant sightings of tiny coral atolls and turquoise reefs in the South China Sea.
Singapore Strait Traffic
An incredible view of hundreds of cargo ships anchored in the world's busiest shipping lanes.
Bintan Island
Vibrant green landscapes of the Indonesian Riau Archipelago during the holding pattern or descent.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the afternoon sun. If the flight approaches SIN from the south, you'll get a unique look at the Indonesian islands of Batam and Bintan.
