About Podgorica Airport / Podgorica Golubovci Airbase

Podgorica Airport / Podgorica Golubovci Airbase lies in the temperate mid-latitudes at 42.36° N, 19.25° E, on Europe/Podgorica time (UTC+2).

Podgorica Airport / Podgorica Golubovci Airbase has 1 runway. The longest, 18/36, measures 8,202 ft by 148 ft, which puts the field in the widebody capable category: twin-aisle aircraft can use it, and narrowbodies have length to spare. The surface is asphalt. It is lit for night operations.

Runway 18/36 is aligned roughly south/north, which is the clearest hint you get about the prevailing wind here: runways are built to face the wind that blows most often, because aircraft take off and land into it. Every runway here shares that south/north alignment, so a strong crosswind means a crosswind landing rather than a switch to another strip.
