SARAJEVO (Bosnia and Herzegovina), October 31 (SeeNews) – German low-cost airline Eurowings said on Tuesday it plans to carry 900,000 passengers to and from Croatia in 2017, up 60% on the year.
The company on Tuesday launched its direct all year-round service from Croatia's Zagreb to Germany's Duesseldorf, it said in a statement.
Flight on this route will be offered three times a week, on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays.
Eurowings already connects Zagreb to Berlin, Hamburg, Cologne and Stuttgart, and expects to service a total of 200,000 passengers on the five routes in 2018.
The company also plans to extend several of its seasonal services into the winter, as it recently did with the Rijeka-Cologne route, and introduce Croatia's island of Brac into its flight network next year.
Eurowings, headquartered in Duesseldorf, is a fully-owned subsidiary of the Lufthansa Group.
