Which side of the plane to sit from Tokyo Haneda International Airport (Tokyo) to Kushiro Airport (Kushiro)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side is superior as it offers views of the Tokyo skyline and Mount Fuji shortly after takeoff, followed by the majestic Tohoku mountain ranges and the sprawling Kushiro Marshland during the final approach.

Mount Fuji
Visible in the distance to the west shortly after departing Haneda, especially on clear mornings.
Tokyo Cityscape
Panoramic views of the Kanto Plain, including the Tokyo Skytree and central business districts.
Tohoku Volcanic Peaks
Views of the Ou Mountains and iconic peaks like Mt. Zao and Mt. Iwate as the flight heads north.
Tsugaru Strait
The body of water separating Honshu and Hokkaido, often visible before entering Hokkaido airspace.
Kushiro Shitsugen
The vast, winding wetlands of Japan's largest marshland during the descent into Kushiro.
Sit on the left for the best chance to see Mount Fuji during the initial climb. During the descent, keep your camera ready for the unique meandering rivers of the Kushiro Marshland. Morning flights are ideal for crisp, front-lit views of the Tohoku mountains without the afternoon haze.

Excellent views of the industrial ports, Aqua-Line bridge, and busy shipping lanes.
Kujukuri Beach
The long, arcing coastline of Chiba Prefecture visible shortly after takeoff.
Pacific Ocean
Expansive views of the deep blue Pacific horizon for the majority of the cruise phase.
Cape Erimo
The wind-swept southern tip of central Hokkaido where the Hidaka Mountains meet the sea.
The right side is perfect for sunrise flights, offering a spectacular view of the sun emerging over the Pacific. While it sees less land during the mid-flight, it provides a great perspective of the Chiba coastline and the rugged southeastern cliffs of Hokkaido near Cape Erimo.
