Which side of the plane to sit from Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport (Belgrade) to Banja Luka International Airport (Banja Luka)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a more dramatic transition from the flat Pannonian Basin into the rolling hills and rugged peaks of the Bosnian interior, providing superior views of the Sava river bends and the approach into the Vrbas valley.
Belgrade Skyline
A glimpse of the Belgrade Waterfront and the historic Kalemegdan Fortress shortly after takeoff from Nikola Tesla Airport.
Sava River Meanders
The winding loops of the Sava River serve as a natural border, showcasing the emerald waters and lush riverbanks.
Majevica Mountains
Rolling green ridges that signify the transition from the plains into the more mountainous Bosnian landscape.
Bijeljina and Semberia
The fertile Semberia region and the city of Bijeljina visible as the flight enters Bosnian airspace.
Sit on the left for the best views of the Bosnian mountains as the plane descends. Morning flights are ideal to avoid the sun's glare which will be mostly on the south-facing left windows later in the day. This side is particularly scenic during the golden hour when the shadows define the mountain ridges.
Fruška Gora National Park
Serbia's oldest national park, appearing as an isolated mountain island in the flat Pannonian plain.
Sremska Mitrovica
Views of one of the oldest cities in Europe, formerly Sirmium, one of the four capitals of the Roman Empire.
Posavina Lowlands
Expansive agricultural patterns stretching north toward the Croatian border, characterized by geometric fields.
Laktaši Valley
The final approach view of the valley surrounding the airport, known for its thermal springs and orchards.
The right side is perfect for capturing the geometric patterns of the Vojvodina plains. If flying in autumn, the colors of Fruška Gora's forests are spectacular. For afternoon flights, this side will generally be in the shade, providing better conditions for photography without window reflections.
