Our Recommendation

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior viewing experience, featuring the southern coastline of the Korean Peninsula and a spectacular final approach over Ise Bay into Nagoya's offshore airport, with potential views of Mount Fuji in the distance.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏖️

Shandong Peninsula

Distant views of the Yantai and Weihai coastal areas as the flight crosses the Yellow Sea.

🏝️

Korean Archipelago

A stunning mosaic of thousands of small islands dotting the southern coast of South Korea near Dadohaehaesang.

🏯

Kansai Hinterland

The scenic landscape of the Kii Peninsula and the outskirts of the historic Nara and Kyoto regions.

🗻

Mount Fuji Silhouette

On clear days, the iconic peak of Mt. Fuji can be spotted on the eastern horizon during the descent into Nagoya.

🌊

Ise Bay Approach

A low-altitude sweep over the sparkling waters of Ise Bay and the Suzuka circuit before landing at the man-made island airport.

The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to enjoy the sunset over the water. It offers the most iconic 'Japan' views, including the southern islands and the unique approach into Chubu Centrair. Keep your eyes peeled for Mt. Fuji on the horizon about 20 minutes before landing.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🌊

Bohai Sea Departure

Clear views of the Tianjin coastline and the heavy shipping traffic in the Bohai Gulf shortly after takeoff.

🏙️

Incheon & Seoul

Aerial perspective of the sprawling Incheon metropolis and the Han River estuary as the flight enters Korean airspace.

🏔️

Taebaek Mountains

The rugged 'spine' of the Korean Peninsula, particularly striking during winter months when peaks are snow-capped.

🏞️

Lake Biwa

Japan's largest freshwater lake comes into view as the aircraft begins its descent over Shiga Prefecture.

⛰️

Northern Japanese Alps

Views of the Hida Mountains and high-altitude peaks near the Toyama and Gifu border regions.

Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the harsh southern sun. This side is better for viewing the dense urban clusters of South Korea and the dramatic mountain ranges of central Japan. In winter, the snow-covered peaks of the Japanese Alps are the primary attraction here.
