Which side of the plane to sit from Vladivostok International Airport (Vladivostok) to Narita International Airport (Tokyo)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side is highly recommended for its dramatic transition from the Russian coast to the Japanese Alps and the iconic silhouette of Mount Fuji during the approach to Tokyo.

Primorsky Krai
Aerial views of the dense forests and cliffs of the Russian Far East shortly after departure.
Japanese Alps
Spectacular views of the snow-capped Hida and Kiso mountain ranges when crossing Honshu.
Mount Fuji
On clear days, Japan's highest peak is visible in the distance during the descent into the Kanto Plain.
Kanto Urban Sprawl
The incredible density of the Greater Tokyo Area as the aircraft descends towards Narita.
The right side is the 'Fuji side' for this route. To maximize your chances of seeing the mountain, choose a seat behind the wing for an unobstructed view during descent. Morning flights provide the crispest air for long-distance visibility of the Alps and Mount Fuji. Keep your camera ready as you cross the Japanese coastline near Niigata.

Choose the left side for coastal views of Russia during departure. This side is best for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun over the Sea of Japan. It offers a great perspective of the Pacific coastline as you enter the Kanto region.
