Flydubai Zagreb route performance, January - May 2023
Dreams about Emirates returning are officially over
ReplyDeleteCompletely opposite. This just shows how Emirates can attract premium passengers as Croatia is premium destination. FlyDubai customer base is completely different than Emirates.
DeleteBut whera are now premium passangers? They are flying with who?
DeleteHe is making things up.
DeleteThey are now flying with Turkish and Qatar. As we can see both of them are increased number of seats to Zagreb. This is another proof I am right.
DeleteQR passenger numbers on the route are down over 50% on 2019.
DeleteThey are flying to Ljubljana ;)
DeleteYes, as QR was nearly 70% down in capacity. Now rhey fly again 10 weekly from July and I heard from a person from Zagreb Airport they will keep 10 weekly also in winter period.

This is only proof that you dont know what are you talking about, that is your wet dreams and just keep on dreaming.
Those are really poor loads for FlyDubai. I am surprised that P2P demand is not there?
ReplyDeleteWhat about LJU?
ReplyDeleteLjubljana had 22.571 in first 4 months (2973 more than Zagreb)
DeleteJAN - 5653
FEB - 6695
MAR - 5288
APR - 4935
Decent
DeleteIn May Ljubljana had 3707.
DeleteSo in first 5 months total was 26.278 (Zagreb had 2552 less than Ljubljana in first 5 months). Based on that I would say this route has quite some p2p.
If we compare last year numbers we see that only March was performing slightly worse all other months are performing way better: 1-5 2022 result was 18.119 (8159 more in 2023 than in 2022, 45% increase).
JAN 2.756
FEB 3.888
MAR 5.496
APR 3.478
MAJ 2.501
So we might see Emirates flying to Ljubljana one day ;) :P
Were there more flights to Ljubljana. Do you have also LF data?
DeleteI dont have.:/ i can only tell you that compared to last year in first 5 months those are the results:
DeleteFINLAND 4.272 +4.055 +1869%
SWISS 32.345 +15.605 +93%
EGIPT 13.326 +6.137 +85%

NETHERLANDS 10.715 -6.780 -39%
Istanbul has increased in absolute number the most, Netherlands is the only negative market.
Bravo Hrvatska!
ReplyDeleteHow about you read the comment just above your?! It says LJU had 3000 or 15% more passengers!
ReplyDeleteThose are quite good loads and healthy. But it is all about yields. Once the global marks recover more and more I’m sure the loads will go up further and maybe even add a 6th or daily rotation.
ReplyDeleteDon't forget that passengers from Asia that used to fly on Aeroflot to Zagreb are switching to FZ and QR so this is nothing spectacular.
ReplyDelete+1
DeleteDemand would be much higher, but they are too expensive when flying from Australia
ReplyDeleteFlyDubai is actually pretty expensive. Was cheaper for me to fly via Frankfurt with OU and I went Business / Premium economy. to Sydney.
ReplyDeleteThat was Business with Flydubai from Zagreb.

ReplyDeleteQR passenger numbers on the route are down over 50% on 2019.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So what? QR 2019. flew 14pw/week, and 01-06/2023 only 5-7 pw.... You can't compare passenger numbers than load factor. Now Qatar flies to Zagreb more than to any other city in ex-Yugoslavia. That is a clear indicator of the recovery traffic towards Zagreb route.
QR is now flying 10 weekly with load factors over 90% and a person from MZLZ told me they decided to continue with 10 weekly also in the winter. If they keep that load factor they might actually surpass 2019 passengers wise. Apparently money wise they are already making more on Zagreb route than in 2019, in spite of less seats.
