ICN → HND
Which side of the plane to sit from Incheon International Airport (Seoul) to Tokyo Haneda International Airport (Tokyo)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side is the definitive choice for this route because it offers a spectacular, close-up view of Mount Fuji during the descent into Tokyo, alongside views of the southern Japanese coastline and the Korean archipelago.

Dadohaehaesang
The 'Sea of Many Islands' along Korea's southern coast, featuring thousands of small, forested islets.
Tsushima Strait
Historical waters and islands located between the southern tip of Korea and Kyushu.
Nagoya & Ise Bay
A clear view of the massive urban sprawl of Nagoya and the industrial beauty of the surrounding bay.
Mount Fuji
The iconic volcanic peak, visible approximately 20-30 minutes before landing when flying the standard southern arrival route.
Sagami Bay
Views of the Enoshima island and the historic coastal cities of Kamakura and Zushi during final descent.
The right side is essential for seeing Mount Fuji. Aim for an afternoon flight to see the mountain backlit by the setting sun, or a morning flight for the clearest visibility. Be aware that clouds often obscure the peak in summer; winter offers the highest probability of a clear view. Ensure your seat is away from the wing for an unobstructed downward view of the coastline.

Gangwon-do Highlands
The rugged, mountainous terrain of eastern South Korea as you depart the peninsula.
The East Sea
A vast expanse of deep blue water separating the Korean Peninsula from the Japanese archipelago.
Northern Japanese Alps
The dramatic snow-capped peaks of the Tateyama and Hida mountain ranges in central Japan.
Tokyo Bay North
A sprawling view of the Chiba coastline and the northern reaches of the Tokyo metropolitan area.
Sit on the left if you prefer looking at the rugged Northern Alps. On clear winter days, the visibility of the snow-capped peaks is exceptional. This side is also less prone to direct glare from the sun during morning flights heading east.
