MUC β DBV
Which side of the plane to sit from Munich Airport (Munich) to Dubrovnik Airport (Dubrovnik)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers an unparalleled view of the shimmering Adriatic coastline, the white limestone cliffs of the Dalmatian islands, and a high-probability view of the Dubrovnik Old Town on final approach.
Julian Alps
Gliding past the eastern edges of the Alps with views toward Triglav National Park in Slovenia.
Kvarner Gulf
View the large islands of Krk, Cres, and the distinctively barren, moon-like surface of Pag Island.
Dalmatian Archipelago
A stunning mosaic of blue water and green islands, including the long ridges of BraΔ and Hvar.
Dubrovnik Old Town
On the standard approach to Runway 11, the right side often gets a perfect view of the historic walled city and Lokrum Island.
Makarska Riviera
The dramatic point where the Biokovo mountains drop directly into the turquoise Adriatic Sea.
Book a window seat on the right for the iconic 'Dubrovnik approach.' Morning flights (before 11:00 AM) are best as the sun is in the east, illuminating the coastline and islands perfectly without glare. During descent, look for the terracotta roofs of the Old Town roughly 5-10 minutes before touchdown.
Hohe Tauern Range
Spectacular views of the Austrian Alps, including the snowy peaks of the Grossglockner massif shortly after takeoff.
Velebit Mountains
The longest mountain range in Croatia, showcasing dramatic karst topography and rugged limestone ridges.
Dinara Massif
Rugged inland mountains forming the natural border between Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Inland Dalmatia
A bird's eye view of the unique 'polje' karst fields and red-roofed villages of the Croatian hinterland.
Sit on the left if you prefer mountain landscapes over sea views. For early morning flights, the left side will be in direct sunlight, which can be harsh for photography but beautiful for seeing the sunrise over the Balkan peaks.
