CJU → KPO
Which side of the plane to sit from Jeju International Airport (Cheju) to Pohang Airport (G-815/K-3) (Pohang)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a spectacular view of Hallasan during takeoff and follows the stunning southeastern coastline of the Korean Peninsula, including the Busan metropolitan area.
Hallasan Mountain
Dominant views of South Korea's highest peak as the aircraft climbs away from Jeju Island.
Busan Metropolitan View
The dense skyline of Haeundae, Marine City, and the Diamond Bridge are visible along the coast.
Gyeongju Coastline
The rugged and historical shoreline of the Gyeongju area leads directly into the approach for Pohang.
Homigot Sunrise Square
The famous 'Hand of Harmony' statue and the easternmost point of the peninsula can be spotted on final approach.
The right side is the winner for coastal scenery. Try to book a morning flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the Busan skyscrapers and the rugged cliffs of the East Sea with perfect clarity.
Jeju City & Port
Clear views of the northern Jeju urban landscape and the busy ferry terminal immediately after departure.
Dadohaehaesang National Park
A breathtaking look at the thousands of small, emerald-green islands dotting the South Sea.
Jirisan Ridge
On clear days, the massive inland mountain range of the southern peninsula is visible in the distance.
Pohang Steelworks
The massive POSCO industrial complex comes into view on the left as the plane prepares for landing.
Sit on the left for the best views of the southern archipelago. This side is preferable during late afternoon flights to avoid the harsh glare of the setting sun reflecting off the ocean.
