Which side of the plane to sit from Kansai International Airport (Osaka) to Ngurah Rai (Bali) International Airport (Denpasar)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side is superior for its views of the Japanese coastline, the eastern Philippines, and the iconic Mount Agung during the Bali arrival.
Osaka Bay
Aerial view of the artificial airport island and the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge shortly after takeoff.
Shikoku Coast
The rugged Pacific cliffs and the Muroto Peninsula of southern Japan.
Luzon Peaks
The lush, mountainous eastern terrain and tropical landscape of the northern Philippine mainland.
Mindanao Highlands
Deep tropical valleys and emerald peaks of the southern Philippines.
Mount Agung
Bali's highest volcanic peak, often visible during the final descent into Denpasar.
Sit here for sunrise views on southbound morning flights. During descent into Bali, this side offers the best chance to spot Mount Agung and the coastal landscapes of the north. Use a window seat away from the wing for the clearest view of the volcanic topography.
Seto Inland Sea
Scenic views of island-dotted waters between Honshu and Shikoku after departure.
Kyushu Range
The volcanic silhouettes and mountainous interior of southern Japan's Kyushu region.
Celebes Sea
Vibrant turquoise coral formations visible in the clear tropical waters near the equator.
Borneo Edge
Distant views of the vast rainforests and northern coastlines of Borneo.
Java Sea Horizon
Spectacular sunset reflections on the water during evening arrivals into Indonesia.
Recommended for afternoon flights to witness the sunset over the Java Sea. This side also provides better views of the inland sea geography of Japan during the initial climb. Check the flight path to see if the route passes closer to the coast of Borneo for better reef spotting.
