June 13, 2021 - The latest flight news to Croatia as Croatia Airlines summer plans have been revealed with 14 international flights from Zagreb Airport.
Ex Yu Aviation reports that Croatia Airlines will operate 14 international fights from Zagreb this summer, one less than Ryanair, offering 15. Namely, Croatia Airlines will connect Zagreb and Amsterdam, Athens, Brussels, Dublin, Frankfurt, Copenhagen, London Heathrow, Munich, Paris, Rome, Sarajevo, Skopje, Vienna, and Zurich.
Unlike in 2019 (before the pandemic), Croatia Airlines will not run to Barcelona, Bucharest, Helsinki, Lisbon, Milan, Mostar, Oslo, Prague, St Petersburg, Stockholm, and Tel Aviv this summer. Zagreb Airport will serve Frankfurt, Zurich, Split, and Dubrovnik the most.
Recall, Ryanair announced its Zagreb base with 12 initial flights but has added three more routes in the last few months to make it 15. The Irish low-cost airline landed at Zagreb Airport for the first time on Wednesday, June 2.
There will be 80,000 seats between Croatia and Europe each month.
“Frequencies will be adjusted based on market demand," said Croatia Airlines’ Commercial Division head, Slaven Žabo. There will be a total of eighteen international routes from Croatia. He also added that Croatia Airlines and Zagreb Airport are currently negotiating to improve business conditions after the arrival of RyanAir.
Ex Yu Aviation adds that Croatia Airlines will also operate 200 charter flights to the Croatian coast this summer, from Austria, Italy, Ireland, Israel, and Scandinavia.
Croatia Airlines will use Boston Consulting Group (BCG) to help the airlines in post-Covid times.
“BCG will help us redefine new market opportunities for connecting European destinations with the region of Southeast Europe, maximize future revenue potential and increase aircraft productivity. It will help us define opportunities for further rationalization and improvement of business processes," Croatia Airlines said.
