Which side of the plane to sit from Naha Airport (Okinawa) to Tokyo Haneda International Airport (Tokyo)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers an unparalleled vantage point for Japan's most iconic landmark, Mount Fuji, alongside the scenic coastlines of Kyushu, Shikoku, and the Kii Peninsula.
Amami Islands
Clear views of the turquoise coral reefs and white sandy beaches of the northern Ryukyu arc.
Kyushu Mountains
The rugged, volcanic terrain of southern Kyushu and the coastline of Kagoshima.
Kii Peninsula
Dramatic cliffs and deep green forests where the mountains meet the Pacific Ocean.
Mount Fuji
The majestic snow-capped peak is clearly visible on the left about 20-30 minutes before arrival.
Sagami Bay
Aerial views of Enoshima Island and the coastal cities of Kamakura and Yokohama.
Book a window seat on the left (usually 'A' seats). For the best chance to see Mount Fuji, choose an early morning flight to avoid the afternoon cloud cover. Ensure you are looking out approximately 25 minutes before landing at Haneda.
Pacific Horizon
Expansive views of the deep blue Pacific Ocean with stunning sun reflections.
Izu Islands
A chain of volcanic islands including Oshima and Niijima visible as small dots in the ocean.
Tokyo Bay
A bird's-eye view of massive cargo ships, the Aqua-Line bridge, and Haneda's offshore runways.
Boso Peninsula
The industrial and natural landscape of Chiba prefecture during the final descent.
The right side is ideal for sunrise views on early morning departures from Naha. While you miss Mount Fuji, you get a unique perspective of the Izu island chain and a closer look at the busy maritime traffic in Tokyo Bay during the final approach.
