Which side of the plane to sit from Chubu Centrair International Airport (Nagoya) to Antonio B. Won Pat International Airport (Agana)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a superior perspective of the Japanese coastline during departure and offers the best chance to spot the remote volcanic island chains of the Pacific before descending along Guam's scenic northern coast.
Nagoya Urban Sprawl
Aerial views of Nagoya city and the industrial heart of the Aichi prefecture immediately after takeoff.
Mikawa Bay
The intricate coastline of eastern Aichi and the Atsumi Peninsula as the aircraft turns south.
Ogasawara Islands
The remote Bonin Islands can sometimes be spotted deep in the Pacific, depending on the specific air corridor used.
Ritidian Point
Dramatic views of Guam's northernmost point, featuring white sands and deep turquoise reefs during the descent.
On morning flights, be prepared for some sun glare on this side; high-quality sunglasses are recommended. About 20 minutes after takeoff, look back to see if you can spot Mt. Fuji in the distance to the northeast. During the final 15 minutes, keep your camera ready for the contrast between the deep blue ocean and Guam's limestone cliffs.
Kii Peninsula
The rugged, forested mountains of the Kii Peninsula are visible to the west during the initial climb.
Ise-Shima Coast
The jagged rias coastline of Mie Prefecture, famous for its pearl cultivation and the Ise Grand Shrine area.
The Philippine Sea
A vast, deep-blue expanse of the Pacific Ocean that dominates the mid-flight experience.
Tumon Bay
Guam's primary tourist district with its concentration of high-rise hotels and coral reefs is often visible on the final approach.
This is the shade side for morning flights, making it much more comfortable for viewing without glare. It is excellent for late afternoon flights to catch the sunset over the Philippine Sea. When landing at GUM, look for the distinct break in the reef that marks the entrance to Apra Harbor.
