Croatia Airlines to launch three new routes in summer 2023
Croatia Airlines plans to maintain flights to 22 international destinations next summer season and operate 47 international routes, with three new ones to be added to the network. The carrier will introduce new seasonal flights from the coast. It will inaugurate operations from Split to both Skopje and Oslo, as well as from Brač to Munich. The island will become the fifth point in Croatia the airline will link to the Bavarian capital with nonstop flights, and its second route from Brač, complementing operations to Zagreb. Services will run once per week. Overall, the company plans to maintain 17.000 flights next summer and offer 1.82 million seats between March 26 and October 28. These figures are still slightly below pre-pandemic 2019 levels but up 20% on this year.
Split will continue to gain importance in Croatia Airlines’ network over the summer with the carrier to restore all destinations it launched in 2022 and serve twenty European cities in total. It plans to run seventy weekly rotations or 140 weekly flights. Besides its newly planned services to Skopje and Oslo, its international network from Croatia’s second largest city will also include Amsterdam, Athens, Berlin, Bucharest, Dublin, Dusseldorf, Frankfurt, Copenhagen, London Heathrow, London Gatwick, Lyon, Milan, Munich, Paris, Prague, Rome, Stockholm, Vienna, and Zurich. Previously, in 2015, the carrier briefly maintained operations between Split and Skopje, however, the service was discontinued after just two flights.
Croatia Airlines will maintain services to fifteen European destinations (excluding domestic routes) out of its main hub in Zagreb. A total of 120 weekly rotations are planned or 240 weekly flights. The airline does not plan to bring back destinations it discontinued from the Croatian capital during the Covid-19 pandemic such as Oslo, Stockholm, Helsinki, Milan, Prague or Mostar. Instead, it will serve Amsterdam, Athens (via Dubrovnik), Barcelona, Brussels, Dublin, Copenhagen, Frankfurt, London Heathrow, Munich, Paris, Rome (via Split and via Dubrovnik), Sarajevo, Skopje, Vienna and Zurich.
From Dubrovnik, Croatia Airlines will maintain services to seven international European destinations including Athens, Frankfurt, Munich, Paris, Prague and Rome. A total of 25 weekly rotations, or 52 weekly flights are planned. The carrier will continue to operate international services from Osijek and Rijeka to Munich over the coming summer. Croatia Airlines’ Chief Commercial Officer, Slaven Žabo, said the carrier wants to provide strong support to the Croatian tourism industry next year by expanding its European network of destinations and increasing its total number of flights.
