Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Newark to Dubrovnik. Left side wins at both ends of the flight. At departure you get the full Manhattan skyline and New York Harbor, and at arrival you get Dubrovnik's Old Town, Lokrum Island, and the Adriatic coastline. Over the mid-Atlantic and Europe the views are broadly similar, but the left side also tracks slightly closer to the Irish and British coastlines during the transatlantic crossing and offers better views of the Alps if the routing passes over northern Italy or Austria.

During takeoff from Newark Liberty International (EWR), sit on the Left side for the best views. EWR's primary departure runways 22L/22R send aircraft southwest over Newark Bay before turning east over the Atlantic. The left side gets Manhattan's skyline head-on as the aircraft climbs and banks, with the Hudson River, Upper New York Bay, and the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge all clearly visible. The right side faces New Jersey industrial areas and the Meadowlands. Notable sights include: Manhattan skyline (Midtown and Lower Manhattan), Upper New York Bay, Verrazano-Narrows Bridge, Staten Island.

When landing at Dubrovnik (DBV), sit on the Left side for the best views. DBV's runway 12 (the primary landing direction from the northwest) brings aircraft in from the Adriatic Sea over the water, then over the Elaphiti Islands and the Dubrovnik Riviera coastline. The left side faces south toward the open Adriatic and the dramatic limestone Dinaric Alps coastal ridgeline, plus the walled Old Town of Dubrovnik itself just before touchdown. The right side faces inland toward the Konavle valley and Montenegro's mountains. Notable sights include: Dubrovnik Old Town walled city, Lokrum Island, Elaphiti Islands (Šipan, Lopud, Koločep), Adriatic Sea coastline.

The flight from Newark Liberty International (EWR) to Dubrovnik (DBV) takes Approximately 9 to 10 hours.

The flight typically tracks northeast from New York, crossing over Newfoundland or the Labrador coast before the North Atlantic. Mid-ocean the route passes south of Iceland and over the eastern Atlantic. Landfall is usually over Ireland or southwestern England, then across southern England or France. Depending on the routing, the Alps may be visible — particularly the Swiss or Austrian Alps — before descending toward the Adriatic. The Dinaric Alps along the Croatian coast are visible on the approach into Dubrovnik.
