Croatia Airlines has begun operating an extensive series of charter flights to Girona, catering for Croatian secondary school graduation trips to Spain’s Costa Brava. Since August 26 up until this evening alone, the carrier will have operated twenty charter services from Croatia to Girona. The majority of the flights originate from Zagreb, with additional services operated from Split, Rijeka and Pula. The charters are being organised for groups of Croatian high school students travelling on traditional end-of-school excursions, with Lloret de Mar and the wider Costa Brava region among the main destinations. Girona Airport is commonly used for such trips due to its proximity to the popular coastal resorts.

The programme is continuing into early September, with further Croatia Airlines charters planned over the coming days. Croatia Airlines traditionally operates the bulk of the charters from the country to Girona each year.
