Which side of the plane to sit from Daniel K Inouye International Airport (Honolulu) to Antonio B. Won Pat International Airport (Agana)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers the most iconic views of Waikiki and Diamond Head during departure and a better perspective of the Micronesian atolls if the flight path allows.

Diamond Head
Unrivaled aerial views of the famous volcanic tuff cone shortly after lifting off from Honolulu.
Waikiki Shoreline
The dense skyline of Honolulu contrasted against the turquoise waters of the Pacific.
Johnston Atoll
A tiny, isolated coral atoll that serves as a National Wildlife Refuge in the middle of the ocean.
Marshall Islands
Deep blue waters interrupted by the delicate rings of coral atolls like Majuro or Kwajalein.
Mount Lamlam
Guam's highest point, visible on the southern end of the island during the final approach.
Choose the left side for morning departures to see the sun illuminate the Hawaiian coastline. If you are on the United 'Island Hopper' (UA154), this side is essential for seeing the atolls during the multiple stops. Bring a camera with a good zoom for distant landmasses.

Pearl Harbor
Clear views of the USS Arizona Memorial and the historic Ford Island naval complex.
Ewa Beach
The sweeping coastline of West Oahu as the plane climbs to cruising altitude.
Wake Island
A remote coral atoll with significant WWII history, occasionally visible to the north of the track.
Andersen AFB
The massive runways of the strategic U.S. Air Force base on the northern tip of Guam.
Tumon Bay
The main tourist hub of Guam with its white sand beaches and coral reefs visible on descent.
The right side is ideal for avoiding direct sunlight on westbound daytime flights, which reduces glare on the window. It provides a great view of Pearl Harbor immediately after takeoff and the northern cliffs of Guam upon arrival.
