MFMOKJ

Which side of the plane to sit from Macau International Airport (Macau) to Okayama Airport (Okayama)?

Our Recommendation
8.7

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior vantage point for the stunning Ryukyu island chain, the rugged southern coastline of Shikoku, and the spectacular island-dotted Seto Inland Sea during descent.

Right Side Highlights
8.7
🏝️

Ryukyu Archipelago

Crystal clear views of the Okinawa and Amami islands surrounded by vibrant turquoise coral reefs.

🌲

Yakushima Island

The UNESCO-listed island famous for its ancient cedar forests and high mountain peaks rising from the sea.

🌊

Cape Ashizuri

The southernmost point of Shikoku, where dramatic cliffs meet the crashing waves of the Pacific Ocean.

🌉

Seto Ohashi Bridge

A breathtaking series of bridges connecting Honshu to Shikoku, visible during the final descent phase.

⛴️

Seto Inland Sea

A mesmerizing view of the 'Aegean of the East' with its thousands of tiny, pine-covered islands.

This is the prime side for photography. Request a window seat well clear of the wing to capture the Ryukyu islands mid-flight. For the best lighting, a morning flight will illuminate the Japanese coastline and the Seto Inland Sea perfectly.

Left Side Highlights
6.5
🏙️

Macau Skyline

Aerial view of the Cotai Strip's mega-resorts and the sprawling urban landscape of Macau and Zhuhai.

🌉

HZMB Bridge

The world's longest sea-crossing bridge stretching across the Pearl River Delta shortly after takeoff.

⛰️

Shikoku Mountains

Dense, emerald-green mountain ranges and deep valleys of western Shikoku as you fly toward Okayama.

🏯

Okayama City

The city center and the Korakuen Garden area visible just before landing at OKJ.

Sit here if you prefer a view of the Macau-Zhuhai coastline during takeoff. This side also avoids direct afternoon sunlight for much of the northbound flight, making it easier to photograph the landscape without glare.
