December 9, 2021 - The latest flights news to Croatia as Eurowings Zagreb flights have been reduced, and operational changes have been made from Split Airport.
German low-cost airline Eurowings, a Lufthansa Group member, will temporarily suspend traffic between Zagreb, Düsseldorf, and Stuttgart in January next year. The start of traffic on the new line to Prague has also been postponed, reports Croatian Aviation.
Although this was not expected as the pandemic is far better than in the same period last year, Eurowings is showing less interest than expected in the capital and has temporarily canceled two lines from Germany to Zagreb, while the newly announced line between Prague and Zagreb will not start so soon.
Eurowings currently operates on three lines to Zagreb, from Stuttgart, Düsseldorf and Cologne.
According to current information, only the line between Cologne and Zagreb will remain in traffic throughout the winter flight schedule. Namely, Eurowings currently operates three times a week, five flights a week have been announced for Christmas, and from January 14, a reduction to two flights a week has been announced - on Fridays and Sundays.
The last flight on the line between Zagreb and Düsseldorf, which Eurowings introduced at the end of this summer, took place on November 27, and all flights after that date were canceled. The company will operate only four return flights between December 18 and 28, at the time of peak demand, while other flights in December and January were canceled. According to current announcements, Eurowings should operate on this line again from February 8, 2022.
The Stuttgart - Zagreb - Stuttgart route operates three times a week, by January 9 the number of weekly flights will increase to five, while all other flights have been canceled after that date. The line will be re-established on February 7.
The new line announced by Eurowings this year between Prague and Zagreb has had several operational changes so far. Although the flights were announced for December, this will not happen. The airline canceled all announced operations between the two cities until February 8 next year, after which one flight a week has been announced. Given the numerous delays, it is to be expected that this line will not start operating until at least the beginning of spring.
Eurowings is also present at Split Airport in the winter flight schedule. Eurowings operates on two lines to Split - from Stuttgart and Düsseldorf. There have been operational changes on these lines as well.
The Stuttgart - Split line operates twice a week, on Thursdays and Sundays. Before the holidays, a flight will be added on Tuesdays, and from January 9, the line will be interrupted until mid-February.
The Split - Düsseldorf line operates on Wednesdays and Saturdays, and from January 8, the flight will be canceled on Wednesdays and operations will be suspended on Saturdays until mid-February, when two flights a week should be available again.

The company currently operates three international routes to Croatia (one to Zagreb and two to Split) and will resume operations on seven more in May.
More flights to Zagreb Airport and Split Airport
Zagreb will continue to be connected to Cologne three times a week (Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays), and Eurowings will resume traffic on the line between Stuttgart and Zagreb on May 20 with two flights a week, on Thursdays and Sundays.

November 18, 2020 - The latest news for flights to Croatia as Eurowings boosts traffic to Croatia in December.
Croatian Aviation reports that Eurowings has announced its flight schedule for December this year, in which there are operational changes on the routes to Croatia.
With the end of the summer flight schedule at the end of October, Eurowings withdrew from Pula, Rijeka, and Zadar, leaving only two destinations active in the winter months - Zagreb and Split.
The airline announced four flights a week on the routes to Zagreb for November, but they operated fewer, only twice a week, due to reduced demand.
During the holidays, Eurowings increases traffic to Croatia
During the Christmas and New Year holidays, Eurowings plans to increase its presence in Croatia. Given that many Croatian citizens live in Germany and want to come to Croatia just in time for the holidays, this increase in traffic certainly makes sense. And Eurowings is not the first to announce an increase in flights at this time of year.
On the Stuttgart - Zagreb line, Eurowings currently operates twice a week, on Fridays and Sundays. From December 23, 2020, to January 6, 2021, another flight per week is added, on Wednesdays.
The Zagreb - Cologne line currently operates two flights a week, on Fridays and Sundays. From December 21, 2020, to January 6, 2021, they have added two more flights a week, on Mondays and Wednesdays.
Eurowings will increase the number of weekly flights to Split, temporarily introducing another route
The Split - Dusseldorf line currently operates once a week, on Saturdays. From December 23, 2020, to January 6, 2021, another flight has been added, on Wednesdays.
The Split - Stuttgart line currently operates twice a week, on Mondays and Fridays. From December 22, 2020, to January 10, it will operate three times a week, on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays.
Eurowings will temporarily introduce the Split - Cologne line, which will operate twice a week, on Tuesdays and Sundays, from December 22, 2020, to January 10, 2021.
Increasing traffic to Croatia just in time for the holidays was an expected move by Eurowings. Apart from direct destinations, passengers will make excellent connections to other German cities, such as Hamburg and Berlin.
Recall that German Lufthansa has canceled the Munich - Zagreb line, and it will not operate from December 1 to the spring of 2021.

October 13, 2020 - The latest news for flights to Croatia as Eurowings operates on four lines to Croatia in November.
Croatian Aviation reports that Eurowings, a German low-cost carrier, plans to operate to two airports in Croatia in November this year - Split and Zagreb.
Eurowings was among the first to establish traffic to Croatia after the borders opened and the lockdown was lifted. The company operated in this year's summer flight schedule to all airports in Croatia, as it did in the last summer season (Pula, Rijeka, Zadar, Split, Dubrovnik, Zagreb, and Osijek) but with significantly fewer weekly flights and in a shorter duration (Osijek and Dubrovnik had only one month of regular flights).
In the previous winter months, the company operated to Split, Zagreb, Rijeka, and one year, even to Pula. There will be no direct flights to Pula and Rijeka this autumn and winter, which means that Eurowings will remain present only in Split and Zagreb.
Zagreb connected with Stuttgart and Cologne
In November, Eurowings will continue to operate on two routes to Zagreb, from Stuttgart and Cologne.
The Stuttgart - Zagreb line should run four times a week, every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday. A319 aircraft have been announced on the route, which has a capacity of 144 passengers in the fleet of this carrier.
The Cologne - Zagreb line should also run four times a week, on the same days as the line to Stuttgart, every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday. This line will have one less flight per week compared to the summer flight schedule (canceled on Saturday).
Two lines to Split
In last year's winter flight schedule, Eurowings had four international routes to Split (Cologne, Stuttgart, Munich, and Dusseldorf). This winter, there will be only two in traffic with a minimum number of weekly flights.
The Dusseldorf - Split line will operate once a week, on Saturdays, while the Stuttgart - Split line will operate twice a week, every Thursday and Sunday.
All other seasonal routes to Croatian airports will end with traffic for this year by the end of October (October 24), when the summer flight schedule also ends.

Septemeber 5, 2020 - The latest news for flights to Croatia as Eurowings reduces flights to Split Airport.
Croatian Aviation reports that due to the introduction of restrictive measures that apply to all who travel to Germany from Split-Dalmatia, Sibenik-Knin, and Zadar counties (mandatory testing for COVID-19 and self-isolation until the test results are presented), Eurowings has recorded a decline in demand resulting in numerous cancellations on lines to Split Airport.
In mid-August, Eurowings announced its flight schedule to Croatia for September, in which it announced an increase in the number of weekly flights from a number of German cities compared to August.
Due to restrictive measures and the epidemiological situation in Croatia, Eurowings, just like everyone else, is recording a decline in demand on routes to Split, which results in the cancellation of certain departures and a new, reduced flight schedule for September this year. Eurowings was supposed to run 40 operations a week to Split Airport this month, but that will not happen.
You can find the new flight schedule below:
Split - Dusseldorf will operate 3 times a week, on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, from September 26 (previously planned 4 flights a week, the flight is canceled on Sundays),
Split - Hamburg will operate twice a week, on Mondays and Sundays, from September 7 (previously planned 4 flights a week, flights are canceled on Tuesdays and Saturdays),
Split - Cologne will operate twice a week, on Thursdays and Saturdays, from September 7 (previously planned 5 flights a week, the flight will be canceled on Tuesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays). Eurowings had two daily flights on this line on Saturdays, leaving one in traffic.
Split - Stuttgart will operate 3 times a week, on Mondays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, from September 7 (previously planned 4 flights a week, the flight is canceled on Sundays),
Split - Hannover continues to operate according to the original plan, once a week, on Saturdays,
Split - Berlin continues to operate according to the original plan, twice a week, on Tuesdays and Saturdays.
Eurowings will have 26 weekly operations to Split in September - as many as 14 flights a week less than originally planned.
In other Croatian airports, there are currently no reductions on Eurowings routes, and traffic is moving according to the flight schedule that was announced earlier. Further cancellations are possible and will depend on restrictions for travelers traveling to Germany from Croatia.
