Which side of the plane to sit from Kansai International Airport (Osaka) to Singapore Changi Airport (Singapore)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior journey along the coastlines of East Asia, featuring the Japanese archipelago, Taiwan's mountains, and the Vietnamese coast.
Shikoku Coastline
Aerial views of the rugged southern coast of Japan's fourth-largest island during departure.
Okinawa Archipelago
String of emerald islands and coral reefs visible through clear subtropical waters.
Taiwan Central Range
High-altitude views of the 3,000-meter peaks and steep eastern cliffs of Taiwan.
Vietnam Highlands
Lush green mountains and the coastal plains of central Vietnam visible on typical flight paths.
Singapore Anchorage
A breathtaking view of thousands of ships lining the horizon near Changi Airport.
The right side is significantly more scenic for daytime flights. You will parallel the Ryukyu island chain and often see the towering mountains of Taiwan. As you near Singapore, you get clear views of the Vietnamese coast and the dense shipping traffic in the Singapore Strait. Choose a seat ahead of the wing for the best photo opportunities of the islands.
Kii Peninsula
Dramatic views of the forested mountains and jagged coastline of Wakayama shortly after takeoff.
Pacific Dawn
Unobstructed views of the sun rising over the horizon on red-eye schedules.
Maritime Routes
Observing the busy shipping lanes connecting East Asia to the Indian Ocean from high altitude.
Tropical Cells
Massive towering cumulus clouds and lightning displays often found over the South China Sea.
Sit on the left for overnight flights to witness a spectacular sunrise over the Pacific. After the initial Japanese coastline, the view is dominated by the open ocean, offering a sense of vastness and impressive tropical cloud structures as you approach the equator.
