Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Chung to Seoul. Right-side seats capture the most dramatic geography: the Taiwan Strait departure over water with mountain backdrops, and the entire northbound flight path over the Yellow Sea toward Korea. Left seats spend most of the flight looking at open ocean or inland terrain with less visual interest.

During takeoff from Taichung (TXG), sit on the Right side for the best views. Taichung typically departs runway 20L/20R (southwesterly heading). Right-side seats face northwest during initial climb, directly toward the Taiwan Strait and the northern portion of Taiwan's west coast. Left seats look inland toward central Taiwan's terrain. Notable sights include: Taiwan Strait (immediate water body), Dajia River valley (visible as linear feature in foreground), Bagua Mountain range (distant ridgeline to the northeast), coastal industrial zones near Taichung port (grid-pattern development along shoreline).

When landing at Incheon International (ICN), sit on the Left side for the best views. Incheon typically receives aircraft on runway 03L/03R or 15L/15R depending on wind. For northbound approaches (runway 03), left-side seats face west and southwest, offering views of the Yellow Sea, Ganghwa Island, and the approach path over water. Right seats would face inland toward Seoul. Notable sights include: Yellow Sea (dominant water body), Ganghwa Island (large island with visible ridge lines), Incheon's reclaimed land zones (geometric patterns of industrial/port development), Han River estuary (visible as darker water feature inland).

The flight from Taichung (TXG) to Incheon International (ICN) takes Approximately 2 hours 15 minutes.

The flight path crosses the Taiwan Strait (roughly 100 miles of open water), then continues northwest over the Yellow Sea. At midpoint, the Shandong Peninsula appears as a distant landmass on the western horizon (visible on clear days, roughly 150 miles away). The flight maintains altitude over open water for most of the journey, with no major landmarks between Taiwan and Korea except the peninsula's distant silhouette. Ganghwa Island and the Korean coast become visible approximately 30 minutes before landing.
