January 24, 2019 – The latest news from around Croatia’s airports, for new flights to Croatia with updates from Zagreb and Split.
Flights to Croatia: ČSA Czech Airlines reduces traffic to Zagreb
Czech national airline ČSA Czech Airlines, a member of the air alliance SkyTeam, will reduce traffic on its seasonal Zagreb-Prague route. In the summer of 2019, they will operate with one flight less than last year, AvioRadar reports.
In April, May, June, September, and October, the airline will run four flights per week. The arrivals from Prague to Zagreb will be in the evening hours on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays, and from Zagreb to Prague in the mornings on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, which is the same as last year. In July and August, this line will no longer operate every day.
It will, however, be strengthened in July and August with arrivals in Zagreb on Thursday and Saturday evenings, with a return to Prague on Friday and Sunday. The line from Prague to Zagreb on Tuesdays with a return from Zagreb to Prague on Wednesdays has been removed. This route will operate from March 31 to October 26, 2019, on the ATR-72 aircraft.
Flights to Croatia: Croatia Airlines reduces traffic on seasonal lines to Split and Zagreb
Croatia’s national carrier Croatia Airlines, a Star Alliance member, reduced the traffic on two seasonal lines for the 2019 summer. Namely, the Split-Belgrade route and the Zagreb-Saint Petersburg route will cut one flight per week, reports AvioRadar.
The Split-Belgrade line will remain in traffic twice a week, Mondays and Fridays, from May 13 to September 23, 2019, using the Bombardier Q400 aircraft. The Zagreb-Saint Petersburg line, which was boosted last year from two to three flights per week, is returning to traffic just two times a week this summer. This line will, therefore, operate on Thursdays and Sundays from April 21 to October 6, 2019, using the Airbus 319 aircraft.
Traffic has been reduced on the Zagreb-Saint Petersburg line to boost operations on the Zagreb-Dublin line.
In other news, British Airways will operate their new Airbus A320Neo aircraft and Airbus A321Neo aircraft on selected flights to Croatia this summer. Namely, the new aircraft will be used for the routes between Zagreb-London and Split-London.
