International airports of Montenegro: Podgorica and Tivat

The most convenient way to get to Montenegro by plane. At the moment, there are two international airports operating in the country, which assume the entire passenger load. The country does not use domestic flights, it is not necessary due to the short distance between Tivat and Golubovci airports (in Podgorica).

How to choose the airport of arrival in Montenegro? It all depends on where you are going to rest. If the rest in Montenegro is planned in Budva or closer to Kotor, the choice of the airport in Tivat will be the most successful. If you go to Bar or Ulcinj and their surroundings, it will be more convenient to use the Golubovtsi.

But do not get upset if you managed to purchase a ticket for the flight to the Montenegrin airport you planned - the country is small, and any distance can be easily overcome by any type of transport. Very popular car rental in Montenegro, around the clock from the terminals are sent a taxi and private cars. Montenegro hotels with pleasure will provide their guests with a profitable transfer.

Less often, but public transport is also in demand by tourists (rather, exotic for the sake of) - the local railway is especially interesting. To the railway station from the airport in Podgorica about 8 kilometers.

If you go on vacation in Budva, you can get to it from Tivat by car in about half an hour, and from Podgorica in an hour. As you can see, the difference is not very significant.

Tivat Airport

Tivat is the international airport of Montenegro, opened in 1971. It consists of a single terminal with 11 registration racks and a 2.5 km long runway. The nearest cities are Tivat, Budva and Kotor. The airport's work is not round-the-clock - it opens at 7 o'clock in the morning, and closes almost immediately after dark in the summer season, in the winter it works from 7 to 4 pm.

Airport in Podgorica

Golubovtsy is the key international air terminal in Montenegro, which annually serves up to 1 million passengers. It is located near such resort towns as Cetinje and Budva. The passenger traffic in Golubovtsi is much larger than in Tivat, which is why the authorities even decided to open an additional terminal, although the airport's area increased due to this insignificantly. Unlike Tivat, Golubovtsy works around the clock.

Hotel transfers from the airport on average will cost you 20 euros, but in the season prices may rise. so many tourists use the route transport, the fare on which varies from 2 to 3 euros. The most expensive way to get from the airport to a holiday destination in Montenegro, as everywhere else is private cabs or taxi services.

Both airports provide passengers with everything necessary, but are equipped with enough asceticism - at your service are small waiting rooms, stands with coffee and drinks, newsagents. Both Tivat and Golubovtsy cope quite successfully with the influx of tourists, even in the busiest weeks of the season.
