Impressive growth, especially at SPU. I wonder if next June and July it might overtake ZAG.
ReplyDeleteZagreb wont be back in front of Split this year until the end of November! It also looks like October will be another big month for Split.
ReplyDeleteIf Split manages to have a the same amount of success in terms of passenger growth (if trends continue you could argue that the increase will be larger) and Zagreb doesn't see growth closer to 20%in 2018, than Split will overtake Zagreb next year!
I have been saying that since day 1 but people made fun of me. Some airlines are already announcing larger planes for next year since there is no more room.
DeleteSplit will boom next year again while ZAG will grow but it won't be nowhere as close as this.
I didn't think it would happen but if it does than I think Zagreb would eventually take back top spot.
DeleteIf Split manages 20% increase this October and Zagreb drops to a 10% average or below during winter than I would be more convinced of Split taking top spot in 2018.
If this growth at Split continues next year, 15% average is what Zagreb would need to keep its neck safely out in front.
You know, SPU's numbers were weak last October so solid growth should not be that hard to accomplish. Winter in ZAG is always slow so having more than 10% growth will be difficult to achieve.
DeleteSeason in SPU is getting seriously extended. In the past second half of September would be dead, not anymore.
False. Last month's 348.749 pax represent an increase of 12%, not 14%. SEP16 had 305.900 pax.
ReplyDeleteBetter improve your maths
Delete348749 is 14,0% more than 305900. The article is correct.
No, it's correct. Just divide them and subtract 1.

DeleteImpressive schooling you had there
Could you perhaps go through all the other numbers, locate all the mistakes?
It ain't false. What anon @ 3:57PM said. Divide them, subtract 1 and multiply with 100 - 14%.
DeleteSplit could end the year with over 2,7 million.
ReplyDeletenot could, it will end over 2,8 million
DeleteDa, if October is solid than over 2.8 is a real possibility.
DeleteYeah, after October already it'll have probably surpassed 2,7 mill.
DeleteDBV had some 10 weekly Monarch flights scheduled in October. How much do you think Monarch's collapse will affect DBV's numbers?
