Which side of the plane to sit from Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk Airport (Yuzhno-sakhalinsk) to Incheon International Airport (Seoul)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior perspective of the Korean coastline and the iconic urban landscape of Seoul, including the Han River and Incheon Bridge.
Aniva Bay

Han River
The massive river cutting through the heart of the Seoul metropolis.
Incheon Bridge
A sprawling architectural marvel connecting Incheon to the airport island.
Yellow Sea
Expansive views of the mudflats and shipping lanes west of the airport.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to catch the sunset over the Yellow Sea. During the standard approach into ICN, this side typically offers a better view of the Han River and the Lotte World Tower.
Susunai Ridge
Rugged peaks surrounding Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk visible immediately after takeoff.
Tatar Strait

Taebaek Mountains
