WUX → FOC
Which side of the plane to sit from Sunan Shuofang International Airport (Wuxi) to Fuzhou Changle International Airport (Fuzhou)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior vantage point for the dramatic transition from the Yangtze River Delta to the rugged East China Sea coastline and the numerous islands near Wenzhou.
Taihu Lake
Shortly after takeoff from WUX, catch a glimpse of the vast eastern shores of China's third-largest freshwater lake.
Hangzhou Bay
An expansive view of the bay area where the Qiantang River meets the sea, occasionally revealing the massive bridge infrastructure.
Wenzhou Archipelago
A stunning array of coastal islands and the rugged, indented coastline of southern Zhejiang province.
Min River Estuary
During the descent into FOC, watch the large Min River flow through the mountains and empty into the Taiwan Strait.
For the clearest views of the coastline, book a morning flight to have the sun behind you. This side is particularly scenic during the final 20 minutes of the flight as the plane aligns with the Fujian coast. Keep an eye out for large cargo ships entering the busy ports below.
Suzhou & Wuxi Sprawl
Detailed views of the densely populated urban corridor and industrial hubs of southern Jiangsu province.
Qiantang River
The famous winding river near Hangzhou, known for its massive tidal bores, visible as a silver thread through the landscape.
Yandang Mountains
The jagged, forest-covered peaks of the coastal mountain range in Zhejiang, known for their unique volcanic rock formations.
Fujian Highlands
Lush, rolling green mountains that dominate the inland landscape as you enter Fujian province.
Choose the right side for sunset flights to enjoy the golden hour over the Zhejiang and Fujian mountain ranges. This side offers better views of the inland river systems and the high-speed rail tracks that parallel the flight path.
