MAN โ DBV
Which side of the plane to sit from Manchester Airport (Manchester) to Dubrovnik Airport (Dubrovnik)?
Right Side of the Plane
While both sides offer stunning Alpine views, the Right Side is the clear winner for its unparalleled perspective of the Dalmatian islands and the iconic Dubrovnik Old Town during the final approach.

The English Channel
Clear views of the coastline of Kent and the northern French beaches as you leave UK airspace.
French & Italian Alps
Possible glimpses of Mont Blanc and the Matterhorn in the distance to the south-east during the mid-flight cruise.
Dalmatian Archipelago
Spectacular views of Hvar, Korฤula, and the Elaphiti Islands as the plane follows the coastline south.
Dubrovnik Old Town
The ultimate highlight: a breathtaking view of the walled city and the island of Lokrum just before touchdown.
Sit on the right for the iconic 'Dubrovnik approach'. Choose a morning flight to avoid the direct glare of the afternoon sun over the Adriatic. Ensure you are looking out about 10-15 minutes before landing for the islands, as the turn toward the runway happens very close to the Old Town.

London & South East
If the flight path trends east, look down for a sprawling view of the Greater London area and the Thames Estuary.
Central Swiss Alps
Excellent views of the high peaks of central Switzerland, including the Eiger and Jungfrau massifs depending on the airway.
Julian Alps
Dramatic limestone peaks of Slovenia, often including views of Triglav National Park.
Dinaric Karst
The rugged, grey mountain ranges of inland Croatia and the Bosnia-Herzegovina border region.
The left side is superior for mountain enthusiasts. Early morning flights provide excellent lighting for the Alps, while late afternoon flights may see the sun reflecting off the peaks. During the final descent into DBV, you will see the rugged hinterland rather than the sea.
