Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

While both sides offer mountain views, the Right Side is superior for its panoramic views of the Yellow Sea islands and the scenic approach over the Nakdong River delta into Busan.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🌊

Liaodong Peninsula

The coastline of northeast China as the aircraft transitions over the Yellow Sea.

🏝️

Korean Archipelago

A stunning view of the thousands of small islands dotting the southwestern coast of the Korean Peninsula.

🌾

Nakdong River Delta

The intricate waterways and agricultural plains of the Nakdong River just before landing.

🚢

Busan Harbor

Industrial docks and the coastal sprawl of Busan as the plane aligns with the Gimhae runway.

The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to avoid direct glare. The highlight is the 'Dadohae' (sea of many islands) during the descent. Try to book a seat ahead of the wing to get an unobstructed view of the Nakdong estuary's unique geography.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🏙️

Shenyang Urban Area

Clear views of the Hun River and the industrial landscape of Shenyang immediately after takeoff.

🌊

Amrok River Border

Distal views of the border between China and North Korea near the city of Dandong.

⛰️

Sobaek Mountains

The rugged, forested peaks of central South Korea stretching toward the southeastern coast.

🏘️

Daegu Metropolitan Area

A sprawling view of South Korea's fourth-largest city nestled in a mountain basin.

Sit on the left for sunrise views on morning flights. Look out early for the winding Yalu River which marks the border between China and North Korea. Clear days provide excellent visibility of the central Korean mountain ranges.
