Taebaek Mountains
The 'backbone' of the Korean Peninsula, featuring steep ridges and dense forests near the east coast.
Ulleungdo Island
A rare aerial perspective of the mysterious volcanic island situated in the middle of the East Sea.
Tateyama Mountain Range
The majestic 'Roof of Japan' with snow-capped peaks providing a dramatic backdrop to Toyama Airport.
Toyama Cityscape
A clear view of the urban center and the Jinzu River as the plane lines up with the runway.
Sit on the right for the most dramatic scenery. Approximately 40-50 minutes into the flight, watch for Ulleungdo Island. On the descent, the view of the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route peaks is world-class, especially in winter and spring when the snow cover is heavy. Afternoon flights offer the best lighting for the Japanese Alps.

Incheon Bridge
View Korea's longest cable-stayed bridge spanning the yellow sea shortly after takeoff from ICN.
East Sea Horizon
Uninterrupted views of the deep blue waters during the mid-flight cruise toward Japan.
Noto Peninsula
The distinct, rugged coastline of Ishikawa Prefecture becomes visible as the aircraft begins its descent.
Toyama Bay
The deep-water bay known for its mirages and firefly squid, framed by the Noto coastline.
The left side is ideal for morning flights to avoid the harsh southern sun. During the final approach, look for the 'V' shape of the Toyama coastline. It offers a cooler, softer light palette which is excellent for photographing the deep blue of the Sea of Japan.
