Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a spectacular view of the volcanic spine of Honshu, including the Hidaka Mountains, Mt. Iwate, and a potential distant view of Mt. Fuji during the descent.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏔️

Hidaka Mountains

Rugged alpine scenery immediately after departing the Tokachi region of Hokkaido.

🌋

Mt. Iwate

A magnificent stratovolcano known as the 'Fuji of Nambu' rising above Morioka.

🧿

Lake Inawashiro

A high-altitude lake in Fukushima that acts as a giant mirror for the surrounding peaks.

🗻

Mt. Fuji

On clear days, Japan's iconic peak is visible to the southwest during the Kanto descent.

🗼

Tokyo Skytree

Enjoy an aerial perspective of the world's tallest tower and the dense Tokyo urban sprawl.

The right side is superior for mountain enthusiasts. For the best view of Mt. Fuji, check the visibility forecast; clear winter days offer the most reliable sightings. Aim for an afternoon flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the Tohoku mountains.

A clear view of the Sendai metropolitan area's coastal interface and busy port.

Observe the heavy maritime traffic and the massive Tokyo Bay Aqua-Line bridge structure.

Select the left side for morning flights to witness the sunrise over the Pacific Ocean. During the final approach into Haneda (especially Runway 34L), you will get a great look at the industrial zones of Kawasaki and the Boso Peninsula.
