WNZ → PVG
Which side of the plane to sit from Wenzhou Longwan International Airport (Wenzhou) to Shanghai Pudong International Airport (Shanghai)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers superior views of the dramatic Zhejiang coastline, the inland Yandang Mountains, and a better angle of the massive Hangzhou Bay Bridge before the final approach into Shanghai's urban sprawl.

Yandang Mountains
Jagged, volcanic peaks known for their sheer cliffs and unique rock formations visible shortly after takeoff.
Ningbo Skyline
A clear view of the sprawling industrial and urban center of Ningbo as you head north.
Hangzhou Bay Bridge
One of the longest trans-oceanic bridges in the world, appearing as a long white thread spanning the bay.
Shanghai Pudong Skyline
On clear days, the Lujiazui financial district with the Shanghai Tower and Oriental Pearl is visible in the distance during descent.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid direct glare and capture the best lighting on the Hangzhou Bay Bridge. This side is consistently better for spotting major inland landmarks and the vast urban development of the Yangtze River Delta.

Zhoushan Archipelago
A stunning cluster of islands, including Putuoshan, scattered across the turquoise and silt-brown waters of the East China Sea.
Yangshan Deep Water Port
The world's largest container port located on offshore islands, connected to the mainland by the 32km Donghai Bridge.
East China Sea Shipping
Vast views of the ocean dotted with hundreds of cargo ships waiting to enter the Shanghai and Ningbo ports.
Offshore Wind Farms
Rows of massive white turbines emerging from the sea along the coastline near the approach path.
The right side is ideal if you enjoy maritime scenery and island hopping from the air. It is particularly scenic during the golden hour before sunset, as the sun reflects off the East China Sea and the many waterways of the archipelago.
