Dubrovnik to get world’s third longest ATR flight

NEWS FLASH


Danish carrier Air Alsie will commence a limited one weekly service between Sonderborg in Southern Denmark to Dubrovnik this month. According to the “Aeroroutes” portal, flights will run once per week, each Saturday, from September 17 until October 22. The airline will deploy its ATR72-500 aircraft on the route, making it one of the longest in the world operated by the turboprop. The service is scheduled to take three hours and 45 minutes, which is just under the world’s longest ATR flights currently operated by Russia’s UTAir between Tyumen to Volgograd and Air Tahiti Nui's service from Totegegie to Papeete, which both take between 3.50 and four hours. Further details for the new Dubrovnik service can be found here.

    3. And what would this "suicidal agenda" be? Suffering a flight on a turboprop? Lol...talk about first world problems!
      If anything is suicidal, it's sticking your head in the sand and ignoring climate change. Some of the mightiest European rivers, such as the Rhine and the Danube, are literally drying up, Europe's climate is basically getting dry and rainy seasons like subtropical regions, but hey...as long as you're not inconvenienced by a few hours on a turboprop, or god forbid taking a train. The horror....the horror

    Some refuelling I hope (in case the bird is full). If not it will be really tight. Not worth the trill.

      Yeah, BH Airlines used to fly the ATR on SJJ-CPH multiple times a week. Absolutely terrible flights, only marginally more convenient than a layover at some Lufthansa hub. That said, OU also still use the Q400 on ZAG-CPH for about half the flights and you never know which one it's gonna be.

      Yes, but Q400 is faster aircraft

      And quieter

    5. And ZAG is closer to CPH than SJJ and DBV

      The Q400 is definitely not quieter and really narrow compared to the ATR

    I mean I recently flew from Sofia to Málaga coming from Macedonia and the flight was around 3h30m with Ryanair. It was horribly long especially on a budget carrier so I don't wanna imagine an ATR from Denmark to Hrvatska. It should be the same feeling or worse.
