Our Recommendation
8.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides an unparalleled view of the Seto Inland Sea's iconic 'thousand islands' and the dense urban landscapes of the Keihanshin region including Kobe and Osaka.

Left Side Highlights
8.8
🌋

Kunisaki Peninsula

Immediately after takeoff, view the unique circular volcanic topography and lush valleys of northern Oita.

đŸī¸

Seto Inland Sea

A breathtaking vista of hundreds of tiny islands, aquaculture rafts, and cargo ships navigating the narrow channels.

🌉

Akashi Kaikyo Bridge

Spot the world's second-longest suspension bridge connecting Awaji Island to the mainland city of Kobe.

đŸ™ī¸

Osaka Bay

Extensive views of the Kansai urban sprawl, including the man-made islands of Kansai International Airport and Port Island.

đŸ”ī¸

Mount Ibuki

As you descend toward Nagoya, look north to see this prominent limestone peak on the border of Shiga and Gifu.

Book a window seat on the left (Port) side for the best lighting during morning flights, as the sun will be behind you. This side is superior for photography of the intricate coastline and the massive bridges connecting Shikoku to Honshu. The flight is relatively short, so keep your camera ready from the moment the seatbelt sign turns off.

Right Side Highlights
7.5
📍

Sadamisaki Peninsula

Look down at Japan's narrowest peninsula, a thin strip of land reaching out like a needle into the Bungo Channel.

â›°ī¸

Mount Ishizuchi

View the sharp, jagged peaks of the highest mountain in Western Japan rising above the Shikoku range.

🌲

Kii Peninsula

Witness the deep, mystical forests and steep valleys of the UNESCO-listed Kumano Kodo pilgrimage region.

â›Šī¸

Ise-Shima Coast

Observe the complex rias coastline and the sacred forests surrounding the Ise Grand Shrine area before landing.

đŸ—ģ

Mount Fuji

On exceptionally clear days, Japan's iconic volcano may be visible on the distant horizon to the east during the final cruise phase.

The right side is ideal for mountain lovers and those interested in the rugged, wilder side of Shikoku and the Kii Peninsula. During afternoon flights, be aware that the sun will be on this side, which may cause glare. Keep an eye out for the distinct pearl cultivation rafts in the Ago Bay area as the plane crosses into Ise Bay for its approach to NGO.
