Hero background

Podgorica

Montenegro’s primary international hub: compact terminal, essential services and smooth logistics.

Podgorica Airport serves the capital and the country’s main routes–both to the coast and to the mountains. The terminal is compact with a clear layout, quick access to parking and car-rental counters. In high season, expect potential queues at security and check-in; arriving a bit earlier helps.

Amenities include ATMs, car-rental desks, transfer and taxi pickup zones, cafés and essential traveler services. eSIM works well for connectivity; traditional SIM points and exchange services may operate depending on schedule and demand.
