NEWS FLASH
British Airways will be operating flights between London Gatwick and Dubrovnik into the winter season this year and will resume services in 2026 earlier than usual. During the upcoming winter season, which begins on October 26 and runs until March 28, British Airways will maintain two weekly flights, on Wednesdays and Sundays, until November 30. They will resume on March 2, on Mondays and Thursdays. The airline will deploy an Airbus A320 on the route during the winter period. British Airways joins a growing list of carriers extending their seasonal summer flights to Dubrovnik into the winter.
Hope this extension works, but since there are no tourists in the winter, I am courious if this is going to work
ReplyDeletewhat a bs, even North Korea has tourists in Winter
DeleteTop. 👌
ReplyDeleteSo basically, BA will only fly during winter to DBV.
ReplyDeleteWhat?
DeleteOnly route in ExYu which will British fly during winter season will be Dubrovnik.
DeleteBravo Hrvatska!
ReplyDeleteHehe, it is not Hrvatska, it’s “Hrvacka” :)
DeleteThere's ongoing assessment on the tourist streams in Europe in the very near future, taking into consideration the summers getting unbearable hotter in the sothern area while winters get milder all over continent. One of the most probable scenarios include more summer vacations at the north of continent and more travels to Mediterranean during rest of the year... I think this is something all of us will live to see.
ReplyDeleteBeen doing it for years

DeleteThe younger generations like going to the Mediterranean area for beach life, parties, on each corner bum bum and the hot life. Families are limited to kids vacation time and prefer for their kids beach life too.
DeleteI am heading to the 60s. My choice today is vacationing March until May and September until end of November and with a complete different focus: Good Food, Wine Tasting, visiting culture heritage, enjoying the medit. life style, visiting museums, concerts, enjoy the great architecture, hiking and my preferred temp range is 15-25C. I also dont like crowded areas. Of course people like me are a minority, still there are enough of us, that flight extensions such as now from BA are absolutely justified.
Let’s hope it works and it brings more airlines in DBV during winter season. Aegean, Vueling and Turkish all had intentions or have served year round DBV.
ReplyDelete"Aegean, Vueling and Turkish all had intentions or have served year round DBV"... and failed for a reason... Dubrovnik is depressing during winter.
DeleteBA's winter schedule looks good to me though, November is still ok, good weather season has extended well into November in last years. If someone told me 15 years ago I would be swimming in Dubrovnik sea in mid November I would tell him he's crazy, but it happened.
(and spare me the BS that tourists don't come to Dubrovnik just because of the sea and bla bla, maybe they don't, but they sure as hell don't come to be depressed in a lifeless gloomy city during other part of the year either. Source: I live here for more than 40 years).
So, they are extending season to November and March. December, January and February are still uncovered.
