Our Recommendation
8.5

The right side provides an exceptional view of the iconic Incheon Bridge and the jagged, beautiful coastline of the Taean Peninsula during the final approach.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🌾

Jiangsu Delta

Intricate networks of canals and emerald green rice paddies stretching toward the coast.

🚢

Yellow Sea Shipping

Clear views of heavy maritime traffic and large container ships entering the Bohai Sea.

🏝️

Taean Archipelago

Stunning views of the jagged South Korean coastline and small islands during the descent.

🌉

Incheon Bridge

A spectacular view of one of the world's longest cable-stayed bridges just before touchdown.

The right side is highly recommended for the descent. Request a window seat behind the wing for the best view of the Incheon Bridge. Afternoon flights provide the best lighting for the Korean coastline, highlighting the contrast between the sea and the mountains.

7.2
⛰️

Dabie Mountains

Distant views of the rugged mountain ranges in eastern China shortly after departure.

🌊

Yangtze River Basin

Crossing the massive, winding Yangtze River as the flight progresses through Anhui Province.

🏙️

Qingdao Coastline

Possible glimpses of the southern Shandong Peninsula and the Yellow Sea transition.

Ganghwa Island

A historical island visible during northern approaches into Incheon International Airport.

Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight. It offers better views of the Chinese mainland interior and the northern reaches of the Yellow Sea. Keep an eye out for the large freshwater lakes of Jiangsu.
