Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Taegu to Shanghai. While takeoff offers brief views of Daegu's river valley, the landing approach into Shanghai provides far more dramatic and extended scenery—the Yangtze estuary, Hangzhou Bay, and Pudong's iconic skyline are visually distinctive and occupy a longer portion of the descent. Left-side seats capture the most impressive finale.

During takeoff from Daegu Ab (TAE), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right-side seats offer views of the Nakdong River valley and Daegu's urban sprawl immediately after departure. The aircraft climbs southwestward, so right-side passengers see the river's distinctive meanders and the surrounding agricultural plains that define the region. Notable sights include: Nakdong River (major waterway running north-south through Daegu), Daegu metropolitan area (urban grid visible below), Palgongsan mountain range (distant peaks to the northeast), agricultural plains of Gyeongbuk province.

When landing at Shanghai Pudong International (PVG), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left-side seats provide excellent views during the descent approach into Shanghai. The aircraft descends from the northeast, and left-side passengers see the Yangtze River estuary, Hangzhou Bay, and the Pudong skyline as the plane lines up for runway approach. Notable sights include: Yangtze River estuary (massive delta with multiple channels and islands), Hangzhou Bay (broad water body to the south), Pudong financial district skyline (high-rise cluster), Huangpu River (tributary running through Shanghai proper).

The flight from Daegu Ab (TAE) to Shanghai Pudong International (PVG) takes 1h 50m.

The flight crosses the Korea Strait and enters Chinese airspace over Jiangsu Province. En route, passengers may glimpse the Shandong Peninsula's eastern coast (if flying at lower cruise altitude during certain conditions), but the primary midpoint feature is the transition from Korean to Chinese airspace over open water. The Yellow Sea dominates the crossing, with no major landmarks visible at typical cruise altitude of 30,000+ feet.
