Which side of the plane to sit from Chubu Centrair International Airport (Nagoya) to Kuala Lumpur International Airport (Kuala Lumpur)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers more frequent views of terrestrial landmarks, including the rugged Kii Peninsula after takeoff, the urbanized west coast of Taiwan, and the lush terrain of the Malay Peninsula during arrival.
Search flights from NGO to KUL
Kii Peninsula
Immediately after takeoff, enjoy views of the mountainous coastline and deep bays of Wakayama Prefecture.
Taiwan West Coast
Clear views of Taipei's outskirts and the densely populated western corridor of Taiwan about midway through the flight.
Indochina Coastline
Depending on the specific airway, distant views of the Vietnamese coastline near Da Nang may be visible.
Kuala Lumpur Approach
Excellent views of the Klang Valley urban sprawl and the architectural landscape surrounding the airport.
The right side is ideal for morning departures to avoid the sun's glare. For the best experience, sit behind the wing to capture the contrast between the turquoise waters of the South China Sea and the rugged Taiwanese coastline. In the final 30 minutes, watch for the shift from blue sea to the deep greens of the Malaysian mainland.

Pacific Horizon
Stunning vistas of the vast Pacific Ocean and the Philippine Sea throughout the mid-flight segment.
Ryukyu Archipelago
Occasional views of the distant coral-fringed islands of the Okinawa chain dotting the blue water.
Strait of Malacca
High-altitude views of the world's busiest shipping lanes as you enter the final approach phase.
Malaysian Rainforests
Dense, vibrant green tropical canopy and palm oil plantations visible as the plane descends into KUL.
Choose the left side for evening flights to witness spectacular sunsets over the horizon. During the first two hours, keep your eyes peeled for the scattered islands of the Ryukyu chain. This side is also generally shielded from direct afternoon sunlight when flying southward, reducing cabin glare.
