HND → ISG
Which side of the plane to sit from Tokyo Haneda International Airport (Tokyo) to New Ishigaki Airport (Ishigaki)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side is superior for this route as it provides a front-row seat to Mount Fuji shortly after departure and offers continuous views of the Japanese coastline and the Ryukyu island chain during the descent.
Search flights from HND to ISG
Mount Fuji
The most iconic view in Japan; the snow-capped peak is typically visible 10 to 15 minutes after departing Haneda.
Suruga Bay & Izu Peninsula
A beautiful contrast of deep blue bay waters against the rugged, forested terrain of the Izu coastline.
Shikoku Mountains
Views of the Shikoku mountain range and the southern coast of the island mid-way through the flight.
Okinawa Main Island
Clear views of Naha city and the northern Yanbaru forests as the flight tracks south through the Ryukyu arc.
Miyako-jima Bridges
The long, scenic bridges connecting Miyako, Kurima, and Irabu islands are often visible over the 'Miyako Blue' waters.
For the best view of Mt. Fuji, book a window seat on the right and hope for a clear morning flight. In the afternoon, the sun will be on this side, which may cause glare; use a polarizing filter for photos of the coral reefs during descent.

Tokyo Bay & Skyline
Panoramic views of Tokyo's dense urban landscape and the industrial beauty of the Kawasaki waterfront upon takeoff.
Izu Islands
Aerial perspectives of Oshima and Toshima volcanic islands rising out of the deep blue Pacific Ocean.
Ishigaki Coastal Reefs
Vibrant turquoise lagoons and coral reef structures visible during the final banking turn into New Ishigaki Airport.
Sit on the left for sunrise views on early morning flights. While you miss Mount Fuji, the descent into Ishigaki often involves a left-hand turn that provides a great angle of the island's eastern emerald coastline.
