TGD → FRA
Which side of the plane to sit from Podgorica Airport (Podgorica) to Frankfurt am Main Airport (Frankfurt)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side offers an unparalleled view of the European continent's diverse geography, from the wild Dinaric Alps in the Balkans to the glacier-carved peaks of the Austrian Alps and the urban centers of Central Europe.
Durmitor Massif
Jagged limestone peaks and the deep Tara River Canyon in northern Montenegro, visible during the first 15 minutes.
Zagreb
A sprawling view of the Croatian capital nestled at the foot of the Medvednica mountain range.
Grossglockner
The highest point in Austria, appearing as a sharp pyramid among the Hohe Tauern glaciers.
Munich Skyline
The distinctive Allianz Arena and the northern sprawl of the Bavarian capital as you cross into Germany.
Frankfurt Finance District
The 'Mainhattan' skyscrapers are typically most visible from this side on the standard easterly approach to Runway 25.
For the best experience, book a window seat on the right and fly during the morning hours. This ensures the Alps are illuminated by the sun rather than silhouetted. Look out for the Allianz Arena near Munich and the high-rise buildings of Frankfurt's financial district as you prepare for landing, as this side provides the most consistent views of the city center.
Lake Skadar
Europe's largest bird reserve and a stunning karst lake visible immediately after takeoff from Podgorica.
Kornati Archipelago
The dense cluster of white limestone islands in the Adriatic Sea visible in the far distance over Croatia.
Julian Alps
Mount Triglav and the rugged peaks of Slovenia's premier national park visible to the west.
Lake Chiemsee
The 'Bavarian Sea' with its prominent islands, located halfway between Salzburg and Munich.
Main River Valley
The winding river landscape that leads the aircraft directly into the heart of the Hesse region.
Choose the left side for evening flights to witness the sunset over the distant Adriatic. During the winter, this side offers beautiful views of the snow-covered Julian Alps in Slovenia. On approach, if the plane enters a holding pattern, you may get a secondary view of the Rhine river and the vineyards of the Rheingau.
