The beauty of this airport is not just in its surroundings, but also a very challenging approach and landing (rated 4D by ICAO). That’s why pilots like to call it “The European KaiTak”. Due to mountainous terrain along the approach path, the airport is open only during daytime hours. Although it is one of the most dangerous and most difficult airport for approach and landing and a challenge for every pilot, there have been no accidents since its opening.
The airport is quite capable of handling 6 aircraft every hour, and capable of handling large aircraft such as (once regular) Ilyushin IL-86 - later redirected to Podgorica airport due to noise abatement.
The scenery follows our basic idea: keep it rich and frame-rate friendly. We've put a lot of effort to design the airport as realistically as possible with minimum impact on frame rate. We think Tivat deserved a scenery due to unique and hard approach as well as Boka Kotorska being a popular tourist destination. That is why we also redesigned the Boka Kotorska bay itself.
