Ise Bay and Mie
Immediate views of the Nagoya coastline, the Port of Nagoya, and the rugged Kii Peninsula after takeoff.
Okinawa Archipelago
Stunning aerial views of emerald islands and surrounding coral reefs as the flight tracks south through the Ryukyu chain.
Northern Luzon Coast
The dramatic meeting of the Babuyan Channel and the mountainous coastline of Cagayan and Ilocos.
Manila Bay
A panoramic view of the Bataan Peninsula and the historic Corregidor Island during the final landing pattern.
This is the premier side for landmark spotting. In the afternoon, you will witness a beautiful sunset over the South China Sea. Keep your eyes peeled roughly 3.5 hours into the flight for the turquoise reefs of the Ryukyu Islands. During descent, look for Mount Pinatubo's distant peak on clear days.

Pacific Sunrise
Spectacular orange and gold horizons over the open Pacific Ocean on early morning departures.
Sierra Madre Range
The longest mountain range in the Philippines, featuring dense tropical rainforests during the descent.
Laguna de Bay
A massive heart-shaped freshwater lake that dominates the view just before touchdown at MNL.
Choose this side for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight or to enjoy the sunrise. During the final approach, look for the urban density of Quezon City and the vast Sierra Madre mountains to the east. Seasonal cloud cover during monsoon months (June-October) may obscure these views.
