Incheon Bridge
Dramatic views of Korea's longest cable-stayed bridge immediately after takeoff.
Yellow Sea Archipelago
Hundreds of small islands scattered along the jagged southwestern coast of Korea.
Tsushima Islands
The historic Japanese islands appearing as emerald jewels in the middle of the strait.
Kanmon Bridge
The massive suspension bridge connecting the main island of Honshu to Kyushu.
Ube Waterfront

The right side is ideal for catching the sunset over the sea on evening flights. Keep your camera ready about 45 minutes into the flight to spot Tsushima. During the final approach to UBJ, the right side often provides a clear view of Shimonoseki city and the bustling shipping lanes of the Kanmon Strait.

Seoul Outskirts
Bird's eye view of the dense urban planning and satellite cities south of the capital.
Sobaek Mountain Range
The rugged, forested spine of the Korean peninsula stretching toward the south.
East Sea Horizon
A vast blue expanse as the aircraft transitions from the mainland to the Korea Strait.
Yamaguchi Highlands
The lush, mountainous interior of western Honshu visible during the descent.
Sit on the left for softer morning light when flying south. You will get a better view of the Korean mountainous interior, but you might miss the more iconic coastal landmarks. Look for the Akiyoshidai karst plateau shortly before touchdown if the flight path tracks slightly inland.
