Poor growth in June, but can probably be attributed to last year's football WC charters. Nice to see growth despite drop in operations, means LF on most flights is higher.
ReplyDeleteIt is really so funny that you manage to find excuse for every single month where ZAG had bad numbers.
DeleteWe heard here handball championship was responsible for results in January, Eastern is taken every single year as a reason for bad / good results (depending from the month) and now we hear WC football charters!
1,5% is pathetic!
WC charters accounted to maybe 30k passengers in June and July this year, so every kind of growth is good.
DeleteAnon 14:23, not an excuse, just an explanation. Statistics without explanation or insight is just a bunch of numbers. There's a reason why April is 10% and why June is 1.5%.

DeleteYou're mixing things. There wen't any new routes and it says, even less flights operated, so how do you expect to have double digit increase? It's something completely different the fact that there weren't any new routes and/or airlines flying to Zagreb.
But we should discuss why there were fewer flights during the high season.
DeleteWeren't there some charters to Russia in June last year? I can't recall. I know there were some in July.
DeleteIt's just 1,5% growth bc Croatia has 7 other airports & it's summer as well, that's why Split will have 700K,
DeleteWhat do other airports have to do anything with ZAG. ZAG and SPU are not even in the same catchment area. Bad meme.
DeleteAnonymous @ Obviously you're not from Croatia, passengers from April to Nov have options to travel w LLC directly to the Dalmatian coast, during the winter Zagreb is the main entrance for all pax coming to Croatia.
DeleteYeah summer charters and the sea have nothing to do with anything. Get real.
DeleteThere is a stagnation in many European cities. Forget about the 2016-2017 boom.
ReplyDeleteSure.
DeleteFrom 100 biggest European airport only 9 had traffic in 2018 lower than in 2017.
