ICN → OIT
Which side of the plane to sit from Incheon International Airport (Seoul) to Oita Airport (Oita)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the volcanic landscape of Kyushu, including the iconic Mount Aso caldera and the beautiful islands of the Tsushima Strait.
Dadohaehaesang Archipelago
Observe the stunning collection of thousands of small islands off the southwest coast of Korea.
Tsushima Island
A mountainous, forested Japanese island located in the middle of the Korea Strait.
Fukuoka City
A clear view of the bustling coastal city and Hakata Bay as you enter Kyushu airspace.
Mount Aso
One of the world's largest calderas; look for the active smoking craters of the central peaks.
Kuju Mountains
The highest peaks in Kyushu, offering dramatic high-altitude volcanic scenery near Oita.
The right side is the prime choice for volcano enthusiasts. Keep your eyes peeled as you cross over central Kyushu for Mount Aso's smoke. Afternoon flights provide the best lighting for the volcanic terrain of Oita Prefecture.
Seoul Skyline
Catch glimpses of the Han River and Lotte World Tower shortly after departure from Incheon.
Sobaek Mountains
Fly over the rugged central mountain ranges of the Korean Peninsula.
Tsushima Strait
A vast expanse of blue sea separating the Korean Peninsula from the Japanese Archipelago.
Kanmon Bridge
On clear days, see the bridge connecting the main islands of Honshu and Kyushu to the north.
Beppu Bay
As the plane descends, view the coastal hot spring town of Beppu, known for its rising steam vents.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid direct sun glare. This side is excellent for seeing the urban density of South Korea and the final approach into Oita over the scenic Bungo Channel.
