Which side of the plane to sit from Kuala Lumpur International Airport (Kuala Lumpur) to Gimhae International Airport (Busan)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers superior views of the Vietnamese coastline, the rugged peaks of Taiwan, and a stunning approach into South Korea featuring Jeju Island and the southern archipelago.
Kuala Lumpur Departure
Clear views of the Klang Valley and the Titiwangsa Mountains immediately after takeoff from KUL.
Vietnam Coastline
Visibility of the central Vietnamese coast, including the areas near Da Nang and the Marble Mountains.
Taiwanese Highlands
Dramatic views of the Central Mountain Range and Yushan if the flight path tracks west of Taiwan.
Jeju Island
The iconic shield volcano Hallasan and the unique volcanic topography of Korea's largest island.
Dadohaehaesang National Park
The 'Sea of Many Islands' along Korea's southern coast, featuring thousands of forested islets.
For day flights, the left side (Seat A) provides a panoramic view of the Asian landmass without the harsh glare of the eastern sun. On the final descent into Busan, look out for the Nakdong River delta and the western suburbs of the city.
South China Sea Traffic
Observation of one of the world's busiest shipping lanes with numerous cargo vessels and tankers.
Batanes Archipelago
Distant views of the northernmost islands of the Philippines between the South China and Philippine Seas.

Busan Harbor
Spectacular views of the Gwangan Bridge and the Haeundae district's skyscrapers if landing from the south.
Choose the right side (Seat K) for morning flights to witness the sunrise over the Pacific. During the final approach to Gimhae, this side often provides a stunning view of the Busan port and the dense urban landscape nestled between coastal mountains.
