Our Recommendation
7.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers superior views of the Liaodong Peninsula's rugged coastline upon departure and the distant, intriguing mountain silhouettes of the North Korean coast before the final descent into Incheon.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🏙️

Dalian Cityscape

Aerial view of the Dalian port and the dense urban sprawl of the Zhongshan district shortly after takeoff.

🌊

Liaodong Coastline

Dramatic rocky cliffs and hidden coves along the southern tip of Liaoning Province.

🇰🇵

North Korean Borderlands

Distant views of the South Hwanghae province coastline and its jagged mountain ranges on clear days.

🌉

Incheon Bridge

A stunning perspective of one of the world's longest cable-stayed bridges during the final approach phase.

🏘️

Incheon City Skyline

The modern skyscrapers of Songdo International Business District visible in the distance across the bay.

Book an early morning flight for the best lighting on the Chinese coast without direct sun glare. Keep your eyes peeled about 30 minutes into the flight for the silhouette of the North Korean coast to the north. In winter, you might see sea ice near the shorelines.

Right Side Highlights
6.5
🚢

Yellow Sea Shipping Lanes

Spotting massive cargo ships and tankers navigating the busy maritime route between China and Korea.

🏝️

Socheongdo Islands

Remote and sparsely populated islands dotting the middle of the West Sea.

🏖️

Muuido Island

A close-up view of the beaches and forest trails of this popular island getaway just south of the airport.

🏢

Incheon Airport Terminals

An impressive overhead view of the architectural layout of ICN's world-class terminals upon landing.

Ideal for afternoon or evening flights to catch the sunset over the Yellow Sea. During low tide, look for the vast, internationally recognized tidal mudflats (getbol) of Incheon which create intricate patterns on the seafloor.
