Ryanair prepared to launch domestic flights in Croatia


Ryanair has said it is “quite prepared” to launch domestic flights within Croatia, noting it could do so without subsidies. All domestic routes within Croatia are currently subsided through the Public Service Obligation (PSO) scheme, which make European funds available for unprofitable domestic routes which are deemed vital for the economic development of the region they serve. The existing four-year PSO contracts in Croatia, which expired on March 28, 2020, are currently held by Croatia Airlines and Trade Air, which won a European tender to maintain ten routes inside the country. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the Croatian government has not begun tender procedures for a new four-year contract and has simply extended the existing deal currently in place, however, it is expected to issue an open call later in 2021.

Commenting on the matter, Ryanair’s CEO, Eddie Wilson, said, “At the moment, all the domestic routes are subsidised. Seems bizarre that you must pay an airline to fly up and down Croatia when Dubrovnik is such a nice place to go to. We would have no difficulty flying internally with zero subsidies. We have just done that in Ireland, where there was one of these Public Service Obligation routes, which is just a way of channelling money to airlines. Why should the taxpayer pay for that on 300 euros fares to Dubrovnik in the height of summer when commercial airlines can do that for no subsidies? We would be quite prepared to do those routes”.

The current PSO contracts in Croatia cover the national carrier's routes from Zagreb to Dubrovnik, Split, Zadar, Pula and Brač, as well as Trade Air's services from Osijek to Dubrovnik, Split, Pula, Zagreb and Rijeka. Croatia Airlines annually receives 10.3 million euros in compensation for the domestic services. The largest amount goes towards maintaining flights between Zagreb - Pula - Zadar, where the airline is remunerated some 177 euros per passenger carried. The value of Trade Air's PSO contracts amount to 2.6 million euros per year. The largest share of the subsidies goes towards the upkeep of the Osijek - Zagreb service, where the airline is compensated approximately 599 euros per passenger. Other than Croatia Airlines and Trade Air, no other carrier has ever applied to operate PSO routes within the country. All of them are restricted to a single operating carrier.

    They obviously targeted Croatia Airlines.

    An by the way PSO for DBV is really not needed especially in the summer. Artificial way of supporting loss making airline.

    In case PSO requires an airline to provide at least three daily connections between ZAG-DBV and ZAG-SPU year-round, Ryanair would be out of game very quickly. It can operate both routes during summer months without any support certainly but winter season is a different issue and it'll be pretty difficult for Ryanair to find point to point flying passengers during these months. Therefore Croatian government can still adjust requirements in such a way to transfer money to Croatia Airlines.

    4. Under the EU rules for PSO you can finance only the BASIC connectivity. 3x/is far from basic. Plus, you cant subsidize routes under the pretext of PSO, if there is a market interest - Ryanair would simply complain to EC.

      Delete
    5. Wrong. There are many routes in Europe where you have and more the 3 daily flights with PSO and its legal. Like from Cagliari to Rome and Milan or routes from Corsica. In Corsica there are even multiple airlines flying domestic routes still the only one who gets PSO is Air Corsica. So Ryan cannot complain about this.

      Delete
    6. PSO can be legally used on the routes where there is no market as described in Regulation 1008/2008 "standards of continuity, regularity, pricing or minimum capacity to ensure access to isolated or developing regions when a Member State finds that objectives of regional development policy will not be met adequately if only left to a free play of market forces as the market itself will not deliver an acceptable level of air services to these regions". You can have 3 daily PSO flights as long as the yearly traffic does not exceed 100.000 pac, there is no market and this connectivity ensure "acceptable level of sir service".

L/f for foreign airlines to Dbv and Spu are 150+ and Ou is serving coastal a/p_s mostly with Dashes. Only solution is to move hub to coast, reduce administration in Buzin , open new markets throughout Europe and allready start selling tickets for new season.Sorry for all Zag fans but just remove transfer dbv, puy, zad and spu paps from zag 2019 numbers and you will get exact number zagreb generates.

    A little off topic, but today I have noticed, on Flightradar24, that many flights to and from italy have been cancelled. The majority, it seems, are Ryanair flights. One Ryanair flight is Zagreb-Rome -Zagreb. Now as a Ryanair passenger, how am I protected? Do I have to wait for the next available flight to my destination? This in turn ,would have me pay extra for hotel. I may have to miss work, because I cannot get home. Is Ryanair going to charge me extra for booking one of their flights? Many questions come to mind. As a consumer, I too have to be protected.

      I can just share with you my experience. Don't expect Ryanair to protect you.

      They cancelled once my flight from Spain to Frankfurt and instead of offering me next available connection no matter with which airline they first tried to rebook me on their next flight ( 3 days later). After I rejected it they wanted to send me to Luxembourg or Berlin with other LCC's and I would have to cover costs from these places to Frankfurt. Of course that I rejected it as well.

      I had no other chance but to take rent a car and to drive to Germany. At that time I made a mistake and asked for my ticket to be refunded what they did but due to that fact they rejected to pay to me rent a car costs, toll, fuel etc.

      Maybe I would have got my rent a car costs back (which were 4 times higher than refund) if I did not ask for refund.

As a consumer and traveler, I fully believe it is up to the airline , to help out the consumer if a delay or cancellation. Whenever I have encountered a delay, where say I would miss a connection, the airline would always help out right at the airport. No extra charge. At times I would even be bumped up due to the inconvenience. Again no extra charge. If a flight was cancelled and I would have to take a flight the next day, the airline would go out of its way to book me a hotel, with dinner and breakfast, drive me there and drive me back to the airport the next day. No extra charge. I must add that when I had to sleep at a hotel, by the time I came to the hotel, there was a new intinerary for which flight I would take the next day. My tickets are bought early enough so I do get good prices.

    Can someone explain to me this "uhljeb" insider joke apparently? I checked it's got to do with the country bureaucracy, but how is it related to OU?

      It's not even a joke, the person who you usually see using it is serious. Basically people who don't agree with every thought of ''mr who shall remain nameless'' are accused of being uhljebs working for OU, desperately trying to defend the mismanaged airline.

    2. @An.01.09 and @An.21.34, several more Anonymouses today, and @Pozdrav iz Graza, is the same person, uhljeb from OU, Party bot, whose mission here is to spit at me all the time for speaking loudly of crime, corruption, nepotism and incapability in OU.

      So basically something like a corrupt elite..... but this is nothing new to our Balkan region. We all know them quite well. The octopus tangles need to be cut off as usual.

    Guys,
    The world travel situation is very fluid due to pandemic/political issues.
    It is absolutely useless to discuss Ryanar plans when they don't even know what is going to happen next week.
    Look at demonstration in Europe this weekend, look at finnacial collapse of Lebanon, and just very coup in Tunisia today. How do you think ANY airline can plan anything in terms of flights anywhere? Nobody knows anything. If Ryanair knows something I have a bridge to sell you in Brooklyn.

      What do domestic flights within Croatia have to do with coup in Tunisia and Lebanon financial collapse?

    2. Plus Ryanair doesn't fly to either Lebanon or Tunisia. For coups or financial crackdowns in Italy and Germany, I have no information

      You are probably not aware of how important it is to sustain and have domestic travel for the economy. Ever heard of busy domestic routes in South Korea, Spain, Brazil, etc? Croatia has a proper capital city with its proper coast and trade, tourism, stock exchange, movements are quite important for the country's domestic economic sustainability. Give us a break of your leftist Lebanon crisis affecting Croatia.
      Hopefully FR achieve their goal allowing a healthy competition and enough of this old-fashioned protectionism.
