Which side of the plane to sit from Gimhae International Airport (Busan) to Siem Reap International Airport (Siem-reap)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior perspective of the East China Sea, the dramatic Vietnamese coastline near Da Nang, and the iconic temples of the Angkor region during the final approach.
Tsushima Island
Clear views of this Japanese island located in the middle of the Korea Strait shortly after takeoff.
Da Nang Coastline
Breathtaking views of the Son Tra Peninsula, the white sands of My Khe Beach, and the Marble Mountains.
Mekong River
The winding brown waters of the mighty Mekong River cutting through the lush landscape of the Indochinese Peninsula.
Angkor Archaeological Park
A potential bird's-eye view of the massive moat of Angkor Wat if the wind conditions dictate a northern approach to the runway.
This is the preferred side for sunset flights, providing a golden hour glow over the South China Sea. During the final 15 minutes of flight, look closely for the distinct square moats surrounding the ancient Khmer temples, which are most visible from this side.
Busan Harbor
An immediate view of South Korea's largest port and the bridge infrastructure connecting the coastal districts.
Taiwanese Peaks
Distant views of the Central Mountain Range if the flight path tracks through the Taipei Flight Information Region.
Vietnam Central Highlands
Dense tropical forests and rolling hills as the aircraft enters Indochina airspace over the Annamite Range.
Tonle Sap Lake
The massive scale of Southeast Asia's largest freshwater lake becomes visible during the descent into Cambodia.
Choose this side for early morning departures to catch the sunrise over the Korea Strait. Keep an eye out for the vast grid-like agricultural patterns as you cross into the Cambodian interior, which are particularly vivid during the monsoon season.
