ZAG β DBV
Which side of the plane to sit from Zagreb Airport (Zagreb) to Dubrovnik Airport (Dubrovnik)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers spectacular views of the Adriatic coastline and the iconic Croatian islands throughout the flight, culminating in a breathtaking aerial perspective of Dubrovnik's Old Town upon approach.
Kornati Archipelago
A dense cluster of hundreds of small, uninhabited islands and islets known for their stark, lunar-like beauty.
Zadar Coastline
Views of the historic city of Zadar and its surrounding intricate network of channels and peninsulas.
Hvar and BraΔ
Iconic views of the central Dalmatian islands, including the unique shape of the Zlatni Rat beach on BraΔ.
Mljet National Park
The heavily forested island of Mljet, featuring its distinct saltwater lakes visible from high above.
Dubrovnik Old Town
During the standard approach to Runway 11, the right side provides a world-class view of the terracotta roofs and medieval walls.
The right side is highly recommended for sunset flights to witness the Adriatic islands silhouetted against the golden sea. During the descent into DBV, keep your camera ready for the iconic 'Pearl of the Adriatic' cityscape.
Zagreb Cityscape
A clear view of the Croatian capital and the surrounding Medvednica mountain immediately after takeoff.
Velebit Mountains
The rugged limestone peaks of the Velebit range, which separates the continental climate from the Mediterranean.
Plitvice Region
Aerial views of the forested karst landscape near the famous Plitvice Lakes National Park area.
Biokovo Range
The massive mountain wall that towers over the Makarska Riviera, providing a dramatic backdrop to the coast.
Neretva Delta
The lush, green agricultural valley where the Neretva River flows into the Adriatic Sea.
Choose the left side if you prefer seeing the dramatic Dinaric Alps and the inland topography. Morning flights offer the best lighting for the mountains without the glare of the sun over the sea.
