Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Osaka to Seoul. Right-side seats offer superior views on departure (Osaka Bay, Kobe, Rokko Mountains) which is the more visually dramatic segment. While left seats have advantages on landing, the takeoff experience from ITM is more compelling geographically.

During takeoff from Osaka International (ITM), sit on the Right side for the best views. ITM typically departs runway 32L/R (northwest heading). Right-side seats face toward the Kobe area and Osaka Bay immediately after takeoff, offering views of the urban sprawl and water before climbing over the Rokko Mountains. Notable sights include: Osaka Bay (immediate foreground), Kobe city district (left-middle distance), Rokko Mountains (receding to the north), Awaji Island (right side, across the bay).

When landing at Gimpo (GMP), sit on the Left side for the best views. GMP uses runways 14L/R or 32L/R depending on wind. On typical westerly approaches (runway 14), left-side seats face south toward the Han River and Seoul's southern districts. The descent path offers clear views of the river's distinctive curves and the city's expansion pattern before final approach. Notable sights include: Han River (prominent serpentine feature in mid-distance), Seoul city grid (left-center), Namsan tower area (left side), Bukhan Mountains (distant northern horizon).

The flight from Osaka International (ITM) to Gimpo (GMP) takes Approximately 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours.

The flight path crosses the Korea Strait at roughly 35°N 130°E. En route, passengers will see the Tsushima Island group (Japanese side) and the northern coast of Kyushu receding to the southwest. The crossing itself offers open water views. As the aircraft approaches Korean airspace around 36°N, the Korean peninsula's western coastline becomes visible, with the Yellow Sea to the west and the beginning of Seoul's metropolitan area to the east. The descent path follows the Han River valley approach into Gimpo.
