    6%? It's kinda satisfactory.
    I still think DBV will top the chart by 2022 and be behind BEG.

      It won't, it never will. Zagreb has steady growth year round, 7-8% long term, Dubrovnik and Split has fast expansion, once they reach certain number, around 3.5 million pax,they'll flat line or grow at steady pace of 4-5%, unless the season is really good.

    Will BNX expansion in autumn affect the ZAG figures in an indirect way?

      Don't be silly, they are not going to be closing it but I am sure the loss of BNX passengers will be felt to a certain extent.

      Ask people from south Croatia and they will tell you that they don'T mind using BNX. Why not have an alternative? It's a 3 hours ride.
      Many many people mentioned that it will be the future LCC airport of ZAG.

      LOOOL!!!

      yeah, we'll be packing and heading for Banja Luka, we don't mind passport checks on border and probably erratic departure schedule. If that makes you happy, i guess.

      Service out of Zadar is far supperior, most Croats would travel extra 50km to Zadar than dick around in selendra somewhere in republika Srpska.

      When you say most Croats from down south,you mean Hercegovina right ?

      Zadar is closer for most Croats, only 200km,in Zadar in less than 2 hours on the autoput, no border crossing and passport checks. Banja luka is not good for most croats, perhaps some in Slavonia might use the airport if they're close to the border.

      Zadaris actually 300km from Zagreb on the highway - 2,5hrs drive. Banja Luka is 170 km away, but the border is too big of a hassle. Even if it gets more connections in the future, which is doubtful. I'd rather go to Graz than Banja Luka. At least you're not exiting the EU and it's exactly the same distance from Zagreb - 170km.

      The border literally takes 20 minutes at most, stop presenting this as something that's not. You are just trying to comfort yourselves ahead of BNX's boom.

      Also, before FR you always used to brag how all of BNX uses ZAG yet now no one speaks about the change of them getting their own flights.

      I wish BNX all the success but it is highly unlikely it will impact air traffic in Croatia in any noticeable way.

    I predict 400,000 pax at ZAG in July. That would be 14,5% increase on last year and it's totally possible. It'll be another first for ZAG.

      375 000 is the projection i am working atm, reason, OU strike, if the strike is longer than 2 days, the number for July could be 350 000,less than last year.

      In July Zagreb handles on an average 12500 pax, so a single day loss x days of strike x 40% OU's share of the traffic in july.

      I predict 4 days of strike, that is loss of 20 k, and projected growth for July is around 390k, so remove ou's numbers for strike dates add growth, and you come to around 375k.

    4. Anonymous6 July 2018 at 18:45

      I guess strike has been called off, we might see 400k after all, we'll see, 12 extra weekly rotation, larger planes and charters projection is 390 000 pax for july, any better would be a nice bonus.

    5. Michael6 July 2018 at 23:39

      No, I didn't say that growth in July would be 22% and I don't post any news, much less fake news, Mr. Anonymous. This is what I think is a plausible number and if you know a bit of math it ends up being approx. 14,5%.
      Last time I estimated anything was that Zagreb would reach 300,000 pax in May and I was right.

    ZAG: 10.1%
    BEG: 6.6%

    Growth in number of passengers for the same period:

    ZAG: 135k
