Fukue to Seoul is 358 miles (576 km), a flight of about 1 hour 15 minutes.
While takeoff favors the right, the landing view from the left is more dramatic and sustained—the Yellow Sea crossing and Incheon's waterfront development provide superior visual interest during the longer descent phase when passengers are most attentive.
Flight Path
The flight crosses the East China Sea and Yellow Sea directly. At cruise altitude (around 25,000 feet), the midpoint offers views of open water with occasional fishing vessel clusters visible as tiny white dots. The Korean Peninsula's western coastline becomes visible roughly 30 minutes before landing, with the Gyeonggi Bay area and its complex of islands appearing as the aircraft begins descent into Incheon's approach corridor.
