Aegean Airlines Postpones Croatia Flights, TAROM Launches Second Charter to Dubrovnik

Croatian Aviation reports that Greek airline Aegean Airlines has postponed the start of flights to Croatia.

Due to the impact of the global pandemic and current travel restrictions, Aegean Airlines has canceled all flights to Zagreb and Dubrovnik previously announced from the end of March.

Direct flights between Zagreb and Athens are now available from May 29 (instead of March 31), while flights to Dubrovnik have been delayed until June 1.

There are no direct flights to Split

Only two months ago, the Greek national carrier published information that in the summer of 2021, it plans to operate four times a week on the Athens – Split – Athens line.

The first flight was announced for May 18 (A319 aircraft), but the company, surprisingly, withdrew all flights between Split and Athens for this summer! There were almost 24 thousand seats on offer. Still, Aegean has decided not to operate between the two mentioned cities in the upcoming summer season and to keep operations only to Dubrovnik and Zagreb.

Considering that Aegean did not operate in Croatia last year, there is a possibility that all flights from Athens will be canceled this year as well, which will primarily depend on the bookings on the two routes.

To enter Greece, you currently need to fill out a PLF form and have a negative PCR test no older than 72 hours. The test must be in English and contain the passenger’s name and the number of the passport or identity card.

Furthermore, Croatian Aviation reports that just a month after announcing the charter route between Bucharest and Dubrovnik, the Romanian airline TAROM will introduce another route for the same tour operator.

In addition to the regular charter line Bucharest – Dubrovnik – Bucharest, which should start operating in June, the Romanian national airline will introduce another route to Dubrovnik.

It is a new charter line from the fourth largest city in Romania, which will be in operation for almost 5 months in the upcoming summer season.

From June 4 to October 15, once a week, every Friday, TAROM will operate on the Cluj – Dubrovnik – Cluj line using aircraft type ATR 72-600 with a capacity of 72 passengers. 

It is the same tour operator that already offers tourist arrangements on the line from Bucharest to Dubrovnik. Due to high demand, the company decided to introduce a charter line from Cluj.

Before the pandemic, Croatia Airlines operated on a regular route between Bucharest and Zagreb in the summer flight schedule. Still, it did not operate last year and obviously will not this year either. There are currently no regular lines between the two countries in the announcement for this year.
