Numerous flight routes have been announced for Croatia’s airports in Zagreb, Split, Rijeka, Zadar, and Pula from various markets for the summer months, primarily from Germany, Benelux, and France, announced the Croatian National Tourist Board (HTZ) on Thursday.
According to HTZ, based on information gathered through its foreign offices, Croatia has further positioned itself as a safe and desirable tourist destination despite the pandemic, due to the excellent epidemiological situation in the international market, which is why flight routes are also being announced.
– The most flights have been announced for the second half of June and the beginning of July for the airports in Split and Dubrovnik, as well as Zadar, Pula, Zagreb, and Rijeka. Although the majority of tourist traffic, about 75 percent, is achieved through arrivals of tourists by car, Croatia has positioned itself as an air destination in recent years, which is particularly important now as we must fight for our share of the tourist market with our offerings, safety, and transport accessibility – emphasizes HTZ director Kristjan Satničić.
He also believes that the renewed ‘awakening’ of air traffic will help Croatian tourism and destinations, especially Dubrovnik, which is quite ‘dependent’ on air arrivals of tourists, but also Split to become more accessible.
