Which side of the plane to sit from Yantai Laishan Airport (Yantai) to Wuhan Tianhe International Airport (Wuhan)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior perspective of China's iconic geographic landmarks, including the Yellow River crossing and the silhouette of Mount Tai, the most sacred of the Five Great Mountains.
Bohai Bay Vistas
Early flight views of the inner sea traffic and the northern edge of the Shandong Peninsula.
Yellow River Crossing
A high-altitude view of the silt-heavy 'Mother River' as it cuts through the North China Plain.
Mount Tai
On clear days, the distant but distinct silhouette of Mount Tai is visible to the west near Jinan.
North China Plain
A geometric patchwork of agricultural fields and sprawling industrial hubs stretching to the horizon.
Wuhan Urban Core
Aerial view of the dense skyscrapers and the confluence of the Han and Yangtze Rivers.
The right side is ideal for spotting Mount Tai mid-flight. Aim for an early morning or late afternoon flight when the sun's lower angle creates long shadows, highlighting the mountain peaks and the river's path.
Yellow Sea Coastline
Dramatic views of the Shandong Peninsula's rugged coast as the plane climbs after departure.
Dabie Mountains
The flight traverses the eastern ridges of this major mountain range, showing deep green valleys.
East Lake (Donghu)
A massive urban lake in Wuhan visible during the final descent, often surrounded by lush parks.
Yangtze River Bends
Stunning views of the mighty Yangtze winding through the Hubei plains before landing.
Sit on the left for the best views of the Yangtze River's vastness during the approach. For morning flights, this side will be in the shade, reducing glare for photography.
