April the 3rd, 2025 – The popular Irish carrier Ryanair is set to reduce a considerable amount of Zadar flights this April. Operations from its Zadar base will be significantly less this month compared to April 2024.
As Poslovni Dnevnik writes, Ryanair will have an average of 61 weekly departures from Zadar next month, a decrease of 37.8% compared to April 2024, or about 37 fewer departures per week. In total, Ryanair has planned 260 Zadar flights for this month. That is a 36.4% decrease compared to April last year, or 149 fewer departures. That figure will increase to 298 flights when return services are included.
As a result, the capacity level of Zadar Airport will be reduced during this month. Ryanair is removing 26,364 seats in each direction, or 52,728 in total. Zadar Airport will have a total of 114,090 seats on offer during April, a decrease of 30.7%, reports Ex-Yu Aviation News.
Rest assured, Ryanair’s reductions to and from Zadar are temporary. The popular low-cost carrier plans to operate an additional fifteen flights per week from the coastal city during the peak summer travel period of June, July and August compared to the same period in 2024.
In addition to the previously announced new routes from that Dalmatian city to Bratislava, Bari and Rome Fiumicino, the carrier will add an additional two weekly rotations compared to 2024 on flights to Poznan, Charleroi, Baden Baden, Gdansk and Košice. An additional weekly route will be introduced to Krakow, Vienna, Wroclaw, Memmingen, Budapest, Bologna, Kaunas and Rzeszow.
On the other hand, flights to Warsaw Modlin, London Stansted, Manchester, Marseille, Hahn, Cologne and Bergamo will be reduced by one flight per week. The Ryanair flight from Zadar to Hamburg will be reduced from four to one per week. Despite a few alterations, Ryanair is still continuing its dominance in Zadar and when it comes to Zadar flights.
Despite the fact that Ryanair runs Zadar flights only seasonally (during the summer), it accounted for a massive 81.2% of the airport’s total annual capacity in 2024.
