NEWS FLASH
Croatia's two busiest airports - Zagreb and Split - saw their passenger numbers increase in November, while Dubrovnik's figures slumped as it continues with the overhaul of its runway which has restricted traffic somewhat.
Zagreb Airport handled 234.075 passengers during the month, representing an increase of 5.1%. The number of aircraft operations grew 4.7% to 3.223. During the January - November period, Zagreb Airport welcomed 3.121.445 travellers through its doors, up 8.1% on last year. So far in 2018, it added an extra 235.080 passengers compared to 2017. The airport anticipates welcoming some 3.4 million travellers in 2018, which would result in an almost 10% increase on last year.

Dubrovnik Airport's growth momentum ended as it handled just 26.615 passengers. The figure represents a decrease of 21.9% on the same month last year. Overall, the airport registered 2.516.173 travellers through its doors by the end of November, up 9.5%. Dubrovnik's growth will continue to slow in the coming months as the airport carries out the second phase of its runway overhaul, which will somewhat restrict traffic and capacity. Several airlines, including British Airways, Turkish Airlines and Vueling, have scheduled fewer flights this winter when compared to last.
