airport located 4 km (2.5 miles) from the centre ofTivat ,Montenegro .Overview
Tivat airport was built in
1971 with a single asphaltrunway (14/32) of 2,500 meters (8,202 ft), 7 parking stands forairliners and a capacity of up to 6aircraft movements per hour.It is one of the two public airports in
Montenegro , the other beingPodgorica Airport . Both are operated by state-owned company "Airports of Montenegro" ("Aerodromi Crne Gore").It has one passenger terminal that handles all traffic. It is a single-story building extensively refurbished in
2006 . It has 11check-in desks, aduty-free shop ,car rental agencies and major Montenegrin Banks branch offices.Tivat airport is located on the northern
Adriatic coast of Montenegro. With mountains rising abruptly around Tivat airport and runway 32 that ends only 100 meters from the waters of theBay of Kotor , it is a challenging approach and landing, rated 4D by theICAO . Despite that harsh environment, there was no accident since its opening. Due to poorly illuminated mountanious terrain along the approach path, the airport is open only during daytime.There are daily flights from Tivat to
Belgrade throughout the year, while all other flights are heavily concentrated over the summer period. Tivat airport is mainly used by charter flights to the northern coastal resorts, being only 7 km away fromKotor and 20 km from the popular touristic city ofBudva .With the rapid development of the local real estate and the construction of
Porto Montenegro , the airport has the fastest growing rate in number of passengers of any airport in the region. The growth is expected to slow down in2008 , however, because largeIlyushin Il-86 s andTupolev Tu-154 s were redirected to Podgorica Airport, due tonoise abatement .In
2007 , Tivat Airport served 573,914 passengers.Airlines and destinations
