Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Singapore to Hangzhou. While takeoff offers good views of Singapore's maritime landscape, the landing approach into Hangzhou provides more dramatic and varied scenery—the Qiantang River delta, West Lake, and Hangzhou's urban landscape create a more visually interesting descent than the departure.

During takeoff from Singapore Changi (SIN), sit on the Right side for the best views.

Notable sights include: Singapore city center and harbor, southern coastline of Singapore island, Sentosa Island, Strait of Malacca shipping lanes.

When landing at Xiaoshan (HGH), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left-side seats provide excellent views during descent into Hangzhou. You'll see the Hangzhou Bay coastline, the West Lake area (Xihu), and the Qiantang River delta as the aircraft descends from the east. The urban landscape of Hangzhou and surrounding water features dominate the approach. Notable sights include: Hangzhou Bay, West Lake (Xihu), Qiantang River delta, Hangzhou urban area.

The flight from Singapore Changi (SIN) to Xiaoshan (HGH) takes 3h 15m.

The flight path crosses the South China Sea heading northeast. Notable features include the Paracel Islands region (visible as small atolls if flying at lower altitudes on certain routes), the Vietnamese coast near Da Nang or Hainan Island depending on routing, and the approach to mainland China via the Taiwan Strait or eastern coastal waters. The Yangtze River delta becomes visible in the final descent phase.
