Which side of the plane to sit from Düsseldorf Airport (Duesseldorf) to Podgorica Airport (Podgorica)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a spectacular panoramic journey across the heart of the Alps and a long, scenic stretch along the sparkling Adriatic coast, culminating in a breathtaking approach over Lake Skadar.
Upper Middle Rhine Valley
Early in the flight, look down for the UNESCO-listed valley known for its high concentration of medieval castles.
Tyrol & Dolomites
Witness the dramatic, jagged limestone formations of the Italian Dolomites as the plane traverses the southern Alps.
Dalmatian Archipelago
Stunning views of the Croatian islands, including Brač and Hvar, set against the turquoise Adriatic Sea.
Lake Skadar
The highlight of the trip; a massive bird-shaped lake shared with Albania, famous for its karst islands and floating lilies.
Plantaže Vineyards
Just before touchdown, fly over one of Europe's largest single-complex vineyards surrounding the airport.
The right side is the clear winner for coastal scenery. For the best experience, choose a window seat forward of the wing to capture the Adriatic coastline. During the landing phase at TGD, the plane usually approaches from the south, making Lake Skadar a must-see on this side.
Frankfurt Skyline
Catch a glimpse of Germany's financial hub and the winding Main River shortly after reaching cruising altitude.
Hohe Tauern Peaks
Aerial views of Austria's highest mountains, including the Grossglockner massif, showcasing year-round glaciers.
Dinaric Alps
Fly over the rugged, limestone peaks and deep green forests of Bosnia and Herzegovina's interior.
Podgorica Cityscape
A direct view of the Montenegrin capital's urban layout and the Millennium Bridge during the final descent.
Sit on the left if you prefer inland mountain vistas and alpine glaciers. This side is better during afternoon flights to avoid the harsh southern sun glare while crossing Central Europe.
