Which side of the plane to sit from Weifang Airport (Weifang) to Taoxian Airport (Shenyang)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers superior views of the complex coastline where the Bohai Sea meets the northern Chinese plains, including the unique red wetlands of Panjin.
Weifang City
Aerial views of the kite capital's urban center and river systems shortly after departure.
Shandong Plains
Extensive agricultural grids and rural settlements across the northern Shandong region.
Bohai Rim
Scenic coastal views of the western Bohai Gulf and various industrial port facilities.
Panjin Red Beach
Seasonal crimson wetlands near the Liaohe River mouth, particularly vivid during autumn months.
Liaohe Oil Field
Dense clusters of oil extraction infrastructure and derricks located within the river delta.
Book a window seat on the left for the most varied terrain. Afternoon flights are ideal as the sun will be behind the aircraft, perfectly illuminating the coastline and the vibrant colors of the Liaoning wetlands. Look for the distinct transition from the yellow-tinted sea to the green and red land near Panjin.
Laizhou Bay
Expansive open water views of the eastern gulf shortly after the initial climb.
Maritime Lanes
Visuals of cargo ships and tankers traversing the busy northern maritime trade routes.
Liaodong Mountains
Distant silhouettes of the peninsula's rugged eastern terrain visible on clear days.
Shenyang Suburbs
Aerial perspective of the rapidly expanding southern residential and industrial zones of Shenyang.
The right side is preferable for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the eastern sun. While mostly providing maritime views, it offers a peaceful perspective of the Bohai Sea and a clear view of the final approach into Taoxian Airport's eastern runway configuration.
