November 25, 2019 – The latest news from around Croatia’s airports for new flights to Croatia with updates from Zagreb, Split, Dubrovnik, Pula, and Zadar.
Avio Radar reports that Spanish low-cost carrier Volotea has announced a new route in their 2020 flight schedule that will connect the Greek island of Mykonos to Dubrovnik. The new Mykonos-Dubrovnik route will run twice a week, on Wednesdays and Saturdays, from May 30, 2020. A Boeing 717-200 should service this line.
Thus, for the first time in history, Mykonos will be connected regularly to a Croatian destination. Mykonos is only the second destination in Greece to operate a regular line to Croatia.
Avio Radar also announced that LOT Polish Airlines, a member of the Star Alliance airline association, has begun selling tickets on the Warsaw-Rijeka route. Unlike prior announcements, the new Warsaw-Rijeka line will run for a shorter period of time, i.e., from June 7 to September 27, 2020. LOT will operate one flight per week, on Sundays. The Embraer ERJ-195 aircraft was announced for this route.
Other LOT Polish Airlines routes to Croatia (from Warsaw to Dubrovnik, Split, Zadar, and Zagreb) are on sale the same as this year. However, the Warsaw-Pula line is no longer on offer for next year. Additionally, this year’s new Krakow-Dubrovnik line has been canceled.
To wrap up this edition of flight news, HRTurizam writes that Croatian tourism workers will undoubtedly agree that the key even more success in Croatian tourism, whether we are talking about extending the season or increasing the average earnings from tourism, is an adequate investment in the development of tourism infrastructure, content and, offers, to optimize the “value for money” relationship, which, according to all research, is crucial when choosing a destination.
To this end, the Croatian National Tourist Board’s Market Research and Strategic Planning Department has prepared an overview of direct flights and direct air connections of Croatian airports with 20 significant markets according to information obtained from Dubrovnik, Split, Zagreb, Zadar, Osijek, Pula, Mali Losinj, Brac and Rijeka.
