PNH → ICN
Which side of the plane to sit from Phnom Penh International Airport (Phnom-penh) to Incheon International Airport (Seoul)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers superior views of the mainland Vietnamese coastline, the bright lights of the Shanghai region at night, and a more scenic approach into Incheon over the Yeongjong Bridge.
Phnom Penh Skyline
Aerial view of the Royal Palace and the convergence of the Mekong and Tonle Sap rivers shortly after departure.
Annamite Range
Dramatic views of the rugged, jungle-covered mountains spanning the border between Laos and Vietnam.
Gulf of Tonkin
Stunning vistas of the northern Vietnamese coastline and the vast waters of the South China Sea.
Yangtze River Delta
Visible views of the intense maritime traffic and the lights of the Shanghai metropolitan area.
Jeju Island
Clear views of South Korea's volcanic island and the western slopes of Mount Hallasan.
Incheon Bridge
A spectacular view of the 12-mile-long cable-stayed bridge during the final descent into ICN.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight and glare. If flying at night, this side provides amazing views of the illuminated coastal cities of China and Vietnam. The approach into Seoul from the west usually favors this side for viewing the Incheon islands.
Da Nang Coastline
Panoramic views of the Son Tra Peninsula and the famous white sand beaches of central Vietnam.
South China Sea
Deep blue oceanic vistas punctuated by occasional cargo ships and small island chains.
Taiwanese Peaks
On clear days, the high mountain silhouettes of central Taiwan can be spotted to the east.
Mount Hallasan
A majestic view of South Korea's highest peak if the flight path tracks slightly east of Jeju Island.
Pacific Sunrise
Perfect for overnight 'red-eye' flights to witness a dramatic sunrise over the East China Sea.
The right side is ideal for passengers on overnight flights who want to see the sunrise. Be aware that during afternoon flights, this side will experience significant heat and glare from the sun. Keep an eye out for the twinkling lights of fishing fleets in the East China Sea at night.
