Which side of the plane to sit from Frankfurt am Main Airport (Frankfurt) to Podgorica Airport (Podgorica)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides a superior scenic experience, transitioning from the majestic Alps to the turquoise Adriatic coast and the dramatic fjords of Montenegro.
Lake Constance
The vast expanse of the Bodensee where Germany, Switzerland, and Austria meet at the foot of the Alps.
Central Alpine Chain
A panoramic vista of the snow-covered peaks across the Austrian and Italian border regions.
Dalmatian Islands
The stunning patterns of the Kornati and Dalmatian islands scattered along the Croatian coastline.
Adriatic Coastline
Expansive views of the deep blue sea meeting the rugged, white-cliffed Balkan coastline.
Bay of Kotor
The spectacular, mountain-rimmed fjord of Montenegro, visible during the approach to Podgorica.
The right side is unbeatable for coastal enthusiasts. To capture the best lighting on the Adriatic islands and the Montenegrin mountains, choose a flight departing Frankfurt in the early to mid-afternoon. Sit behind the wing to ensure your view of the Bay of Kotor is unobstructed during the descent.
Frankfurt Skyline
Aerial view of the Main river and the Euro-tower skyscrapers immediately after takeoff.
Austrian High Tauern
Direct views of the highest alpine peaks in Austria, including the Grossglockner massif.
Dinaric Karst
The unique, rugged limestone landscape stretching across the Balkan interior towards the border.
Lake Skadar
The largest lake in Southern Europe, shared with Albania, visible during the final descent.
Choose the left side for early morning flights to minimize direct sun glare. This side is typically better for viewing the inner mountain ranges of the Balkans and offers a clear view of Podgorica city if the plane approaches from the north.
