Our Recommendation
7.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers superior views of the Fijian atolls upon departure and a higher likelihood of spotting Jeju Island and the picturesque Yellow Sea islands during the descent into Seoul.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🏝️

Mamanuca Islands

Stunning coral reefs and turquoise lagoons shortly after departure from Nadi.

🌊

Solomon Sea

Expansive views of the remote Pacific crossing and scattered tropical atolls.

🌋

Jeju Island

Visuals of Korea's volcanic island including the peak of Hallasan on a clear day.

🚤

Yellow Sea Archipelagos

Hundreds of small, rocky islands dotting the sea as you approach the Korean Peninsula.

Choose the left side for morning departures to avoid direct glare. The highlight is the approach over the Yellow Sea, where the sunlight reflects off the water around thousands of islets. Keep your window shade up as you cross the equator for unique cloud formations.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
⛰️

Viti Levu Interior

Rugged, lush green mountain ranges of Fiji's largest island visible during initial climb.

🌌

Mariana Trench

Fly over the deepest part of the world's oceans, characterized by deep indigo waters.

🗾

Kyushu Coastline

Distant silhouettes of Japan's southern volcanic peaks during the northern leg of the journey.

🌉

Incheon Grand Bridge

A spectacular view of South Korea's longest cable-stayed bridge during final approach.

The right side is ideal for late afternoon flights to catch the sunset over the Pacific. During the final descent into ICN, this side often provides a better view of the massive Incheon port and the sprawling metropolitan skyline if the flight path circles from the east.
