Which side of the plane to sit from Dubrovnik Airport (Dubrovnik) to Munich Airport (Munich)?

Our Recommendation
9.2

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a breathtaking journey along the Adriatic coast, showcasing the terracotta roofs of Dubrovnik and the intricate maze of the Dalmatian islands, followed by a spectacular entry into the Alps.

๐Ÿ๏ธ

Dalmatian Archipelago

Aerial panoramas of the islands of Korฤula, Hvar, and Braฤ against crystal blue waters.

Kornati National Park

A dense cluster of over 100 stark, uninhabited islands and islets along the central Croatian coast.

Julian Alps

Slovenia's highest peaks, including the prominent Mount Triglav, as the flight transitions to central Europe.

๐Ÿž๏ธ

Salzburg Lake District

Glacial lakes such as the Wolfgangsee and Attersee visible during the descent phase.

Sit on the left for the best coastal views; choose a seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat distortion. In the morning, this side is shaded, providing better photography conditions. Keep your camera ready in the first 10 minutes for the Dubrovnik city panorama.

Right Side Highlights
