Germanwings to launch new services to mark 10 years of operation in Croatia

German low-cost airline Germanwings will mark ten years of its operation in Croatia this year by launching new flight services from Germany to Croatian destinations, and plans to increase the number of passengers by 15,000 to 435,000 compared to last year.

At the beginning of July it plans to introduce a direct service from Zagreb to Berlin, with flights four times a week. Flights will also be introduced from Berlin to Dubrovnik, Pula, Rijeka, Split and Zadar. Hamburg will also be connected with these destinations.

Passengers will be able to fly from Cologne to Split, Zagreb, Rijeka, Dubrovnik and Pula; from Stuttgart to Split, Zagreb, Dubrovnik, Rijeka and Zadar; from Dortmund to Split; from Hannover to Dubrovnik and Split; and from Duesseldorf to Dubrovnik, Rijeka, Split and Zadar.
