DFW → ICN
Which side of the plane to sit from Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (Dallas-Fort Worth) to Incheon International Airport (Seoul)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the vast Arctic wilderness, the dramatic volcanic landscapes of the Kamchatka Peninsula, and a high probability of seeing the Aurora Borealis during winter months.
Arctic Tundra
Vast, desolate, and beautiful frozen landscapes of the Yukon and Northwest Territories.
Denali National Park
Potential views of the highest peak in North America if the flight path tracks through central Alaska.
Kamchatka Volcanoes
Stunning snow-covered volcanic cones in the Russian Far East, often active with visible steam.
Korean Peninsula
The dense, mountainous terrain of the Korean interior as the plane crosses from the East Sea.
The right side is ideal for avoiding direct sunlight on this westbound route. For winter flights, this side provides the best chance to spot the Northern Lights over Canada and Alaska. Keep your window shade open during the mid-flight transit over Russia for spectacular volcanic views.
Canadian Rockies
Aerial views of the jagged, snow-capped peaks and turquoise glacial lakes of British Columbia and Alberta.
Gulf of Alaska
The rugged coastline where the North American continent meets the deep blues of the Pacific Ocean.
Aleutian Islands
A remote chain of volcanic islands stretching across the northern Pacific towards Asia.
Incheon Bridge
One of the world's longest cable-stayed bridges visible during the final descent into ICN.
The left side is excellent for coastal views during the initial hours and the final approach. However, because this flight travels west, the sun remains to the south, potentially causing significant glare and heat through the window for much of the journey.
