Which side of the plane to sit from Podgorica Airport (Podgorica) to Leonardo da Vinci–Fiumicino Airport (Rome)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a spectacular view of the Bay of Kotor shortly after takeoff and provides the best vantage point for the Gran Sasso mountain range in Italy.
Bay of Kotor
A breathtaking UNESCO-protected winding bay surrounded by steep mountains, often called Europe's southernmost fjord.
Dalmatian Coastline
Distant views of the numerous islands and crystal-clear waters of the Croatian shoreline as you head west.
Gran Sasso d'Italia
The highest peak in the Apennine Mountains, often snow-capped well into late spring and early summer.
Lake Bracciano
A large volcanic lake north of Rome, frequently visible during the final banking maneuvers into Fiumicino.
Sit on the right for the iconic Bay of Kotor view immediately after departure from TGD. Ensure a window seat away from the wing to capture the massive Gran Sasso peaks. Morning flights provide the best natural lighting for the Italian interior landscape.
Montenegrin Riviera
Clear views of the scenic coastline near Budva and the famous luxury island of Sveti Stefan.
Tremiti Islands
A cluster of small, turquoise-colored islands in the Adriatic Sea appearing shortly before the Italian coast.
Gargano Peninsula
The distinctive 'spur' of the Italian boot, featuring dense forests and dramatic limestone cliffs.
Majella National Park
Rugged limestone peaks and deep valleys of the central Apennines visible during the descent into Lazio.
Choose the left side for southern coastal views and the Italian 'spur.' Afternoon flights are ideal to avoid direct sun glare across the Adriatic. Look out for the Tremiti Islands roughly midway through the journey.
