DBV should consider upgrading runway to A380 to cope with the projected pax increases. :)
ReplyDeleteI reckon QR will announce all year round flights in due course
Through the last 20 years Croatia had an increase in foreign visitors of about 600k per year. Considering that pace is picking up all these investments in airport infrastructure were quite needed
ReplyDeleteFlybe is more like a hybrid airline then full service
ReplyDeletewith Anžur as CEO, Stobart is in its way to demise. This guy has NO clue how to run airline business.
ReplyDeleteIt's refreshing to see how these Croatian airports are investing a lot in infrastructure and as a result getting solid interest from a myriad of different airlines. Will be interesting to see which airlines announce flights to ZAG. My predictions include AY and UA. UA would be a good fit and then OU can feed the UA flights from across the Balkans. Now there is a business plan OU - FOC!!!
ReplyDelete2017. ZAG goes to 3,2 million. 2018. it surpasses 3,5 million. Probably ends on 3,6 million. By 2020. 4,5 million and then the next, second phase shall commense. Even tho they are saying 2022. when the traffic reaches over 5 million, but that would be too late imo.
ReplyDeleteI hope you're right
