Which side of the plane to sit from Jeju International Airport (Cheju) to Muan International Airport (Muan)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a spectacular view of the South Korean coastline, featuring the urban layout of Mokpo, its iconic bridge, and the rugged mountains of the southern peninsula as you approach the mainland.
Jeju Port
A bird's-eye view of the northern Jeju coastline and the bustling harbor upon takeoff.
Mokpo Bridge
A majestic cable-stayed bridge that connects the city of Mokpo to the outlying islands.
Mokpo Cityscape
The dense urban landscape of Mokpo contrasted against the surrounding mountains and sea.
Yudalsan Mountain
The iconic rocky peak that stands as a guardian over the city of Mokpo.
Yeongam Lake
Large agricultural reclaimed lands and water reservoirs visible just before the final descent.
The right side is ideal for seeing the complex geography of the Korean peninsula. Morning flights are recommended for the best lighting on the mountains and Mokpo city. Keep your camera ready shortly after the halfway point of the flight as the coastline comes into view.
Jeju Strait
The deep blue waters of the strait separating Jeju Island from the Korean mainland.
Chuja Islands
A beautiful cluster of small, rocky islands located mid-way through the flight.
Dadohaehaesang
The western edge of the 'Sea of Many Islands' National Park, featuring numerous uninhabited islets.
Muan Mudflats
Expansive and intricate tidal flats that are globally recognized for their biodiversity.
Yellow Sea Horizon
An unobstructed view of the horizon, particularly stunning during late afternoon flights.
Choose the left side for evening flights to enjoy the sunset over the Yellow Sea. During the final approach into Muan, look straight down to see the unique, vein-like patterns of the tidal flats, especially during low tide.
