Well-known Scandinavian low-cost airline Norwegian has announced 16 international scheduled flights from Scandinavia to four Croatian airports. This is a significant announcement, especially considering Norwegian’s flight schedule to Croatia in the summer of 2021 and 2020, reports Croatian Aviation.
Namely, there are significantly more scheduled flights to Croatia than in the last two years. Before the pandemic, Norwegian had considerably more traffic to Croatian airports. Still, the flight schedule, apart from the pandemic and the sharp drop in demand, was also affected by financial problems before the coronavirus.

Norwegian will use its B737-800 aircraft on these flights, which has a capacity of 189 seats.
In the peak summer season (July), Norwegian should have over 50 weekly flights to Croatian airports. However, the pandemic in Croatia and Scandinavian countries will undoubtedly influence the flight schedule in the coming months, especially at the beginning of the summer season.
