Which side of the plane to sit from Tianjin Binhai International Airport (Tianjin) to Longjia Airport (Changchun)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a more diverse landscape, featuring the coastline of the Bohai Sea, the unique wetlands of Panjin, and the transition into the mountainous regions of Liaoning province.
Bohai Bay Coastline
Stunning views of the coastline where the North China Plain meets the Bohai Sea.
Panjin Red Beach
In late summer and autumn, the unique red seepweed wetlands are visible near the mouth of the Liaohe River.
Qianshan Mountains
The rugged peaks of the 'Thousand Mountains' range visible in the distance near Anshan.
Shenyang Skyline
A broad perspective of Liaoning's capital city, showcasing its modern high-rises and urban density.
Jilin Forested Hills
The terrain begins to roll into the forested hills characteristic of central Jilin as you approach Changchun.
The right side is the scenic choice for this route. For the best experience, book an afternoon flight when the sun is in the west, illuminating the coastline and mountains. If flying between September and October, look closely near Panjin to spot the crimson hue of the famous Red Beach. Ensure a window seat away from the wing to capture the transition from sea to mountains.
Tianjin Urban Sprawl
Aerial view of the Binhai New Area's dense industrial and residential architecture shortly after takeoff.
North China Plain
A vast, flat expanse of agricultural grids that showcase the scale of farming in northern China.
Liao River Meanders
The winding path of the Liao River as it cuts through the plains of Liaoning province.
Siping Logistics Hub
View of the major rail and transport infrastructure near the border of Liaoning and Jilin provinces.
Sit on the left side during morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the rising sun. This side is ideal for passengers interested in the patterns of industrial development and large-scale agriculture. During the winter, the landscape on this side provides a stark, monochromatic view of the frozen northern plains.
