Which side of the plane to sit from Ngurah Rai (Bali) International Airport (Denpasar) to Narita International Airport (Tokyo)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers the most dramatic views, including the volcanic peaks of Bali at takeoff, the rugged coastline of the Philippines, and the iconic Mount Fuji during the descent into Japan.
Mount Agung
Stunning views of Bali's highest and most sacred volcano immediately after departure.
Palawan & West Philippines
Breathtaking turquoise waters and the scattered islands of the Palawan archipelago.
Manila Bay
Aerial perspective of the sprawling Philippine capital and its busy harbor.
Taiwanese Highlands
Views of the Central Mountain Range of Taiwan as the flight proceeds north.
Mount Fuji
On clear days during the descent into Narita, Japan's most famous peak is often visible to the west.
For the best photography, the left side is preferred as it faces away from the direct sun on daytime flights, reducing glare. Keep your window shade open during the final 45 minutes of the flight for a chance to spot Mount Fuji if the approach path takes you south of Tokyo.
Mount Rinjani
The massive silhouette of Lombok's volcano visible across the Lombok Strait after takeoff.
East Kalimantan
Dense tropical rainforests and winding river systems of Indonesian Borneo.
The Philippine Sea
The deep blue expanse of the western Pacific and the remote islands of the eastern Philippines.
Pacific Sunrise
If on an overnight 'red-eye' flight, this side offers a spectacular sunrise over the horizon.
Boso Peninsula
Detailed views of Chiba's rugged coastline and golf courses during the final approach to NRT.
The right side is ideal for passengers on overnight flights who want to wake up to the sunrise over the Pacific. Note that on daytime flights, this side will be subject to significant sunlight and heat for the majority of the journey.
