Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Shenyang to Tokyo. The outbound climb over the Yellow Sea and Liaodong Peninsula provides more dramatic natural geography than the landing approach. While Mount Fuji is iconic, it's often obscured by haze and appears small at cruising altitude; the coastal scenery on departure is more reliably visible and geographically distinctive.

Right-side seats offer views of the Liaodong Peninsula's coastline and the Yellow Sea as the aircraft climbs northeast toward Japan.
