VVO → ICN
Which side of the plane to sit from Vladivostok International Airport (Vladivostok) to Incheon International Airport (Seoul)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior mix of scenic coastal landscapes, rare views of North Korean mountain ranges, and the sprawling urban geometry of the Seoul-Incheon area.
Vladivostok Bridges
Aerial views of the Zolotoy and Russky Bridges spanning the bays near the departure city.
Hamgyong Mountains
Rugged mountain peaks in North Korea visible along the western flight path on clear days.
Wonsan Coastline
The distinctive coastal features and industrial port area of Wonsan in North Korea.
Greater Seoul Sprawl
The massive urban density and high-rise clusters of South Korea's capital region during descent.
Incheon Grand Bridge
A stunning view of the 21km cable-stayed bridge connecting the mainland to Yeongjong Island.
Request a window seat on the right for rare aerial glimpses of the North Korean coastline. During the final approach into ICN, this side usually offers the best panoramic view of the Seoul skyline. Afternoon flights are recommended as the sun illuminates the land from the west, providing excellent clarity for photography.
Peter the Great Gulf
The deep blue waters of the Russian Far East immediately after takeoff from Vladivostok.
East Sea Horizon
A vast, unobstructed view of the horizon, ideal for watching the sunrise on early morning departures.
Taebaek Mountains
The distant peaks of South Korea's longest mountain range visible during the southern leg of the flight.
The left side is most rewarding during early morning flights when the sun rises over the Sea of Japan. On night flights, look for the bright lights of large fishing fleets scattered across the sea.
