BRU → TIV
Which side of the plane to sit from Brussels Airport (Brussels) to Tivat Airport (Tivat)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers an unparalleled sequence of views, transitioning from the heart of the Alps to the breathtaking turquoise waters of the Adriatic Sea and the dramatic 'fjord' entry into Tivat.
The High Alps
A majestic crossing of the central Alpine chain with views extending toward the Grossglockner.
Dalmatian Coast
The stunning contrast between the white karst limestone of the Velebit mountains and the deep blue Adriatic.
Kornati Archipelago
Dozens of small, uninhabited islands appearing like pearls scattered across the sea near Zadar.
Dubrovnik Old Town
On the descent, you can often spot the iconic red roofs and ancient city walls of Dubrovnik to the south.
Bay of Kotor
The flight's crown jewel: entering the Boka Kotorska, a winding bay surrounded by sheer 1,000-meter cliffs.
Lustica Peninsula
Rugged coastlines and secluded coves visible just seconds before the wheels touch the tarmac.
The approach into Tivat is one of Europe's most beautiful. To see the Bay of Kotor in its full glory, sit on the right side and choose a seat in front of or well behind the wing. For morning flights, the sun will be on the left, giving the right side perfectly lit photos of the Croatian islands and the Montenegrin coast.
Brussels & Louvain
Clear views of the Belgian capital's outskirts and the historic university city of Leuven shortly after takeoff.
Bavarian Heartland
A panorama of Southern Germany's orderly agricultural landscapes and the sprawl of Munich to the south.
Hohe Tauern Peaks
The jagged northern ridges of the Austrian Alps, often covered in snow even during the shoulder seasons.
Slovenian Forests
Deep green expanses of the Julian Alps and the rolling hills surrounding Ljubljana.
Porto Montenegro
Close-up views of the luxury yachts and the marina of Tivat during the final banking maneuver before touchdown.
While less scenic for the coastline, the left side is excellent for catching the sunset on late afternoon flights. On the approach to Runway 14, look for the Orjen mountain massif which creates a dramatic backdrop to the airport.
