TIVBRU

Which side of the plane to sit from Tivat Airport (Tivat) to Brussels Airport (Brussels)?

Our Recommendation
8.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers an unparalleled view of the Bay of Kotor immediately after takeoff, followed by a stunning panorama of the Dalmatian coast and the crystal-clear waters of the Adriatic Sea before crossing the heart of the Alps.

Left Side Highlights
8.8
🌊

Bay of Kotor

Breathtaking views of Europe's southernmost fjord and the Luštica Peninsula shortly after takeoff.

🏝️

Dalmatian Archipelago

A bird's-eye view of the scattered Croatian islands like Korčula, Hvar, and Brač against deep blue water.

🏔️

Austrian & Swiss Alps

Dramatic snow-capped peaks and glaciers as the flight path traverses the western edge of the mountain range.

💧

Lake Constance

The massive 'Bodensee' marking the border between Germany, Switzerland, and Austria.

🌳

Ardennes Forest

The rolling green hills and dense forests of southern Belgium during the descent into Brussels.

Book a window seat forward of the wing to ensure the engine doesn't block the steep banking views over the Bay of Kotor. For morning flights, the sun will be behind the plane or on the right, providing perfect lighting for photography of the Croatian coast. Watch for the 'Strait of Verige' just minutes into the flight.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
⛰️

Lovćen National Park

The rugged, rocky peaks of Montenegro's interior rising sharply from the coastline.

🏔️

Dinaric Alps

Extensive karst landscapes and dramatic limestone ridges spanning Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia.

🏔️

High Tauern Range

Views of the highest peaks in Austria, including the Grossglockner massif in the distance.

🏙️

Munich Metropolitan Area

Potential sightings of the Allianz Arena and the sprawl of the Bavarian capital.

🏰

Rhine Valley

The winding Rhine river as it cuts through the industrial and historic heart of western Germany.

The right side is ideal for inland mountain enthusiasts. During the winter months, the Alpine snow cover is particularly striking on this side. If the aircraft approaches Brussels from the East, you may get an excellent view of the city center and the Atomium during the final approach.
