ZUHKWE

Which side of the plane to sit from Zhuhai Jinwan Airport (Zhuhai) to Longdongbao Airport (Guiyang)?

Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers superior views of the Pearl River Delta's urban landscape, including the Macau skyline and the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, followed by the dramatic transition into the mountainous Guizhou plateau.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏙️

Zhuhai & Macau Skyline

Clear views of the Cotai Strip casinos and Zhuhai's waterfront skyscrapers immediately after takeoff.

🌉

HZMB Bridge

The world's longest sea-crossing bridge is often visible stretching across the Lingdingyang channel.

⛰️

Seven Star Crags

The famous limestone pillars and lakes of Zhaoqing can be spotted as the flight heads northwest.

🏔️

Nanling Mountain Range

Dense, mist-covered mountain peaks that form the natural border between Guangdong and the inland provinces.

🏗️

Guizhou Mega-Bridges

Keep an eye out for massive engineering marvels spanning deep river canyons during the descent into KWE.

The right side is highly recommended for the initial 15 minutes to see the massive scale of the Pearl River Delta infrastructure. Afternoon flights are ideal for this side as the sun will be behind the plane, illuminating the Guiyang mountains in soft golden light.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🌊

South China Sea Coastline

Aerial views of the rugged coastline and small islands south of Zhuhai during the initial climb.

🏞️

Xunjiang River

A major tributary of the Pearl River winding through the limestone landscapes of eastern Guangxi.

⛰️

Guangxi Karst Peaks

Distinctive sugar-loaf limestone mountains that become increasingly frequent as you enter the Guangxi region.

🏙️

Guiyang South Suburbs

Modern residential developments built directly into the steep hillsides of the Guizhou plateau.

Sit on the left if you prefer seeing natural landscapes and the unique karst topography of Guangxi. For late afternoon flights, this side will experience direct sunlight, so keep the window shade handy to manage glare.
