Our Recommendation
8.4

Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides the best perspective of the Da Nang coastline upon takeoff and the scenic approach into Incheon across the Yellow Sea islands.

Left Side Highlights
8.4
🏙️

Da Nang Coastline

Beautiful views of My Khe Beach and the city's modern skyline immediately after takeoff.

⛰️

Son Tra Peninsula

Aerial view of the 'Monkey Mountain' and the massive Lady Buddha statue overlooking the bay.

🏔️

Taiwanese Peaks

On clear days, the high central mountain range of Taiwan is visible across the strait.

🌉

Incheon Bridge

An iconic view of one of the world's longest cable-stayed bridges during the final approach.

🌅

Yellow Sea Sunset

Vibrant colors over the water during evening flights as the plane turns toward Korea.

For the best experience, choose a seat ahead of the wing to avoid engine heat distortion. During the final 20 minutes of flight, keep your camera ready for the Incheon Bridge and the coastal mudflats which appear prominently on the left. During winter, look for snow-capped mountains as you enter Korean airspace.

Right Side Highlights
7.6
🌊

South China Sea

Vast expanses of turquoise water and passing cargo ships in the busy shipping lanes.

🏝️

Jeju Island

On many flight paths, the volcanic Mount Hallasan can be seen far to the east before descent.

🛳️

Incheon Port

A bird's eye view of the massive industrial port facilities and container terminals.

☀️

Pacific Sunrise

Perfect for early morning arrivals, watching the sun rise over the horizon.

On morning flights, the right side receives direct sunlight, which can make it quite warm; keep the window shade down if not viewing. Look for the distinctive volcanic profile of Jeju Island about 45 minutes before landing. This side is also excellent for seeing the twinkling lights of coastal Chinese cities if the flight path takes a more westerly route.
