Which side of the plane to sit from Zagreb Airport (Zagreb) to Priština International Airport (Pristina)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the rugged Dinaric Alps and the dramatic, jagged peaks of the Prokletije range near the Kosovo border.
Turopolje Forests
Dense green oak forests south of Zagreb visible immediately after takeoff from ZAG airport.
Dinaric Alps
A continuous chain of karst mountains through Bosnia and Herzegovina featuring dramatic limestone cliffs.
Sutjeska National Park
Aerial views of deep canyons and the highest peaks of the region, including the Maglić mountain mass.
Prokletije Range
The Accursed Mountains offer sharp, alpine-style peaks that are particularly stunning during the descent into Pristina.
Kosovo Plain
The flat, historic basin surrounding Pristina, providing a stark contrast to the surrounding mountain ranges.
This side is a must for mountain lovers. During winter months, the snow-covered peaks of the Accursed Mountains are world-class. Opt for afternoon flights for the best golden hour lighting on the mountain faces during approach.
Zagreb Cityscape
Panoramic views of the Croatian capital's red-roofed center and cathedral during the initial ascent phase.
Sava River Meanders
The winding path of the Sava river as it flows southeast, creating natural borders between plains.
Slavonian Plains
Expansive agricultural landscapes of eastern Croatia transitioning into the rolling hills of northern Bosnia.
Kopaonik Massif
Distant views of Serbia's premier mountain range, known for its high peaks and volcanic geology.
Choose this side for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. This side is typically calmer visually, focusing on the vast river basins and the transition from the Pannonian Basin to the Balkan mountains.
