Which side of the plane to sit from Incheon International Airport (Seoul) to Brisbane International Airport (Brisbane)?

Search flights from ICN to BNE
Incheon Coastline
Stunning views of the Incheon Grand Bridge and the industrial port cities along South Korea's western coast.
Philippine Peaks
Visuals of the rugged, volcanic terrain of Luzon and Mindanao as the flight tracks south through the archipelago.
New Guinea Highlands
Dramatic views of the dense rainforests and high mountain ranges of Papua New Guinea near the equator crossing.
The Sunshine Coast
A sweeping view of the Queensland coastline, including Noosa and the Glass House Mountains, before landing.
The right side is superior for landform enthusiasts. It provides the best chance to see the diverse landscapes of the Philippines and PNG. During the daytime arrival in Brisbane, the right side often catches the Glass House Mountains and the rolling hills of the Sunshine Coast hinterland. Note that the cabin will be dark for most of the flight, so check the moving map as you pass the equator for the New Guinea crossing.

Pacific Sunrise
On the standard overnight flight path, the left side provides a front-row seat to the sun rising over the Philippine Sea.
Micronesian Atolls
Bird's-eye views of scattered coral atolls and remote Pacific islands during the mid-flight transit.
Moreton Bay
Aerial views of the turquoise waters and sandbanks of Moreton Island and North Stradbroke Island upon descent.
Choose the left side for spectacular sunrises on the typical 10 PM departures from ICN. During the final approach into BNE (usually Runway 01L or 19R), you will get the best view of the island-dotted Moreton Bay. Use a polarized filter for photos to cut through the ocean haze.
