Getting to Montenegro by plane
Flights to Montenegro – besides traveling by train, car, bus or ship/ferry, traveling to Montenegro by plane is of course usually the most relaxing and fastest option. Here is some information about it.
Montenegro basically has two airports through which you can travel at any time – Podgorica Airport and Tivat Airport. Podgorica is the capital of Montenegro, so this airport is the better known of the two. However, the size of the two airports is about the same.
The two cities are also basically very close to each other, which is due to the fact that Montenegro as such is not a large country. So, if you are traveling to the coastal region of Montenegro, it is not too relevant through which airport you arrive. If your trip is to the interior of Montenegro, then Podgorica airport is a bit closer or better located.
There are direct flights from Germany to Montenegro from Berlin and Frankfurt. Otherwise, you would have to change flights once or twice. Booking in advance is always cheaper – as everywhere and always. Flights go either way always several times a week, so you can get quite flexible by plane to Montenegro. The flight time is about 2-2.5 hours for direct flights – very pleasant.
At both airports there is the possibility to rent a car. You can also take a cab to your vacation accommodation. Some accommodations also offer a kind of shuttle service and pick you up and bring you directly from/to the airport. So, depending on how you want to organize your vacation this way, you have all options. Of course, if you want to use a rental car, it is always advisable to book it in advance, preferably together with your flight and accommodation.
