FUK → TSJ
Which side of the plane to sit from Fukuoka Airport (Fukuoka) to Tsushima Airport (Tsushima)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a more consistent view of the Japanese coastline during departure and a spectacular look at Iki Island and the complex rias coastline of Tsushima during the approach.

Itoshima Peninsula
Panoramic views of Keya no Oto and the white sand beaches of western Fukuoka shortly after takeoff.
Iki Island
A clear overhead view of the entire island of Iki, including its small volcanic peaks and turquoise bays.
Aso Bay
The dramatic, jagged rias coastline of central Tsushima, featuring hundreds of tiny forested islets.
Mt. Joyama
The site of an ancient fortress overlooking the narrowest parts of the Tsushima islands.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the glare of the southern sun. This side is particularly rewarding during the descent into TSJ as the plane maneuvers over the intricate waterways of Aso Bay. Look for the small pearl cultivation rafts in the water.

Fukuoka Cityscape
Views of Hakata Port, the Fukuoka Tower, and the Paypay Dome if departing to the north.
Shikanoshima Island
The unique tombolo land bridge connecting the island to the mainland is clearly visible.
Genkai Sea
Watch for the high-speed Beetle ferries and cargo ships traversing the international waters toward Korea.
Northern Tsushima
Densely forested mountain ridges that characterize the wilder, northern half of the island group.
The right side is excellent for afternoon or sunset flights, as the light reflects beautifully off the Genkai Sea. It provides a great perspective of the Fukuoka metropolitan area immediately after takeoff from FUK, especially if using Runway 34.
