What does the Bangkok to Danang flight path pass over?

The flight path crosses the Gulf of Thailand heading northeast, then transitions over the coastal lowlands of central Vietnam. The Annamite Range (Truong Son Mountains) runs parallel to the coast about 30–50 miles inland throughout the route. No major cities are directly on the flight path, but the coastline transitions from Thailand's eastern seaboard (relatively flat) to Vietnam's narrower, more mountainous coast. The gulf waters are typically turquoise near the coast and deeper blue offshore. At cruise altitude (around 25,000 feet), the mountain range appears as a continuous ridge on the horizon, and the coastline is clearly defined by the color contrast between land and sea.
