Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Akita to Tokyo. While takeoff offers mountain scenery, the landing approach provides more dramatic and varied views—Tokyo Bay, urban Tokyo, and potential Mount Fuji visibility make the left side the stronger choice for the overall flight experience.
