Unzen Volcanic Group
View the dramatic volcanic peaks and geothermal landscapes of the Shimabara Peninsula in western Kyushu.
Amakusa Islands
A stunning collection of islands characterized by rugged coastlines and deep blue waters in the Ariake Sea.
Seto Inland Sea
The Mediterranean of Japan, featuring thousands of tiny islands dotting the water between Honshu and Shikoku.
Seto Ohashi Bridge
The massive bridge system connecting Okayama to Kagawa, visible just before the aircraft turns for its final approach.
This is the premier side for this route. For the best experience, choose a seat behind the wing to capture the Seto Inland Sea. During autumn, the visibility is often highest, allowing for clear views of the Shikoku mountain range in the distance.

Mount Daisen

Lake Shinji
The sparkling waters of Japan's seventh-largest lake near Matsue are often visible on the northern horizon.
