BGO โ DBV
Which side of the plane to sit from Bergen Airport Flesland (Bergen) to Dubrovnik Airport (Dubrovnik)?
Right Side of the Plane
While both sides offer views of the Alps, the right side is significantly better for the approach into Dubrovnik, providing an iconic aerial view of the medieval Old Town and the sparkling Adriatic islands.
Norwegian Archipelago
A stunning look at the thousand islands and coastal villages lining the southwestern coast of Norway.
Central Alpine Range
Unrivaled views of the highest snow-capped peaks in Austria and the Julian Alps of Slovenia.
Dalmatian Coast
A turquoise panorama of the Adriatic Sea contrasted against the white limestone cliffs of the Croatian coast.
Elaphiti Islands
The lush green islands of ล ipan, Lopud, and Koloฤep visible just minutes before landing.
Dubrovnik Old Town
The definitive view of the historic red-roofed city walls and the island of Lokrum during the final descent.
Sit behind the wing for the best photography angles. The approach into DBV often involves a bank over the sea; if the plane approaches from the northwest, the right side gets a perfect, low-altitude view of the Old Town. In summer, the late afternoon sun can be bright, so polarized sunglasses are recommended for the sea glare.
Hardangerfjord Region
Distant views of Norway's massive fjord systems and the Folgefonna glacier shortly after takeoff.
Danish Coastline
Clear views of the Jutland peninsula and the Limfjord as the flight crosses from Scandinavia to mainland Europe.
Hamburg and Northern Germany
Visuals of the Elbe river and the massive port infrastructure of northern Germany's largest city.
Eastern Austrian Alps
Aerial perspective of the rugged Hohe Tauern range and the rolling foothills leading into Slovenia.
Dinaric Alps
The dramatic karst landscape of the Balkan mountains as the flight enters Croatian and Bosnian airspace.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the southern sun. This side is ideal for spotting the vast network of inland rivers and the high-altitude peaks of the Eastern Alps. During the final approach, you will see the rugged mountains that serve as the backdrop to the Pearl of the Adriatic.
