Dubrovnik to Newark is 4,515 miles (7,265 km), a flight of about 10 hours 30 minutes.
Left side wins both the departure over the Dalmatian coast and the arrival into New York Harbor. Over the Atlantic the views are similar on both sides, but the left seat delivers the two most spectacular moments of the flight.
Flight Path
The flight tracks northwest over the Adriatic, crosses the Italian Alps near Bolzano, then transits southern Germany and France before reaching the Atlantic near Brittany or Ireland. The mid-Atlantic crossing passes over the Azores region (rarely visible due to cloud cover). Approaching North America, the coast of Newfoundland or Nova Scotia may be visible before descending toward New York.
