STR โ DBV
Which side of the plane to sit from Stuttgart Airport (Stuttgart) to Dubrovnik Airport (Dubrovnik)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side offers a spectacular panoramic view of the jagged Dolomites, the vast Adriatic archipelago, and a legendary aerial view of the walled city of Dubrovnik upon approach.
The Dolomites
The iconic, jagged limestone towers and pale peaks of the Italian Alps pass by shortly after crossing Austria.
Kornati Archipelago
A dense cluster of nearly 150 islands and islets appearing like white stones in the deep blue sea.
Dalmatian Islands
Stunning aerial perspectives of Hvar, Korฤula, and the forested island of Mljet.
Dubrovnik Old Town
The world-famous terracotta roofs and medieval stone walls of the 'Pearl of the Adriatic' are visible on the final approach to Runway 11.
The right side is the 'money side' for this route. For the iconic view of the Dubrovnik Old City, hope for an approach from the northwest (Runway 11). Morning flights are ideal as the sun will be behind the aircraft, illuminating the islands and turquoise water perfectly.
Eastern Alps
Views of the high Austrian peaks including the Hohe Tauern range and potentially the Grossglockner.
Julian Alps
The rugged limestone peaks of Slovenia, including Mount Triglav, visible as you cross the border.
Biokovo Mountain Range
A massive karst mountain wall that drops dramatically into the Adriatic Sea near Makarska.
Konavle Valley
The lush, green valley surrounding the airport, contrasting with the rocky Dalmatian coast.
Choose the left side for better views of the high Alpine interior and the dramatic Dinaric mountain chain. This side is better during the late afternoon to avoid the direct glare of the sun over the Adriatic.
