Zagreb's largest airlines by scheduled seat capacity, June 2024
OU expansion is producing results!
ReplyDeleteYet Ryan is closer and closer to overtaking them. Since in the table we see scheduled capacity, and Ryan has a much higher load factor, is it possible that in June Ryan had more passengers than Croatia?
DeleteThey won't
DeleteRyanair 100% certainly has more passengers in June than Croatia Airlines. There's no doubt about it at all.
Delete1638, a source, just to remove any doubt? OU still in the lead, at least in seats offered, hate them as much as you want!
DeleteRyanair's loads factor is 94%. Croatia Airlines has 60%. You don't have to be a genius.
DeleteWrong. In summer OUs LF is North of 80%
DeleteThat must be why in Q3 2023 Croatia Airlines' load factor was 69.8%. So it is north of 80% only in your dreams.
Delete"North of 80" is still less than 95
DeleteImagine if Croatia had a strong national airline...
ReplyDeleteThey have OU!
Delete1408, what would happen then?
Delete1731 A strong national airline would have waves of flights and a good number of destinations. Something only OU can dream about doing.
DeleteCroatia Airlines has flights that miss connections by 5 minutes because of poor scheduling. In its own hub. Where there are no slots.
Delete1742,strong,leading,large,the biggest... Dr. Freud explained those obsessions...
DeleteDubrovnik, Split and Zadar all did well in June too.
ReplyDeleteBravo Hrvatska!
ReplyDeleteIt shows the power of low cost airline, not in quality but in numbers.
ReplyDeleteWhat an appalling comment. What the hell do you mean by "quality" of passengers??
Delete1626, WTF??
DeleteI am not Viktor and have no idea what he thought, but one possible interpretation could be belief that so called prestige airlines bring prestige passengers. For example, during short-lived Emirates service to Zagreb, a tiny number of first-class passengers visited Zagreb. For some, that tiny quantity of so-called prestige passengers of so-called prestigious Emirates airline has more importance than the large number of Ryanair passengers in Zagreb. I don't agree, but that's one possible explanation.
DeleteViktor probs implied about legacy vs LCC rather than passengers
DeleteEverybody has different views of what actually is quality of passengers.
DeleteBut numbers are numbers!
You can not have opinion that 3 pax is more than four pax.
4 is bigger than 3.
Thats why number of pax counts most.
Did Victor mean quality of service, not quality of passengers?
DeleteYep....now it has been established that there are high quality passengers, and low quality passengers.
ReplyDeleteIs the airport operator going to cap passenger growth from now on? You know, with the whole concourse expansion coming up
ReplyDeleteThere's still more than enough space in the new terminal for more pax. Not sure though what's the max capacity of the new terminal on paper, does anyone know?
Delete5 million is the number at which the operator must expand the terminal. So they will halt discounts for Ryanair in two year's time.
Delete^The discounts for Ryanair end next year. The agreement was to lower the discounts by 25% every year. Since they arrived in 2021. it means they're currently flying with a 25% discount and starting next year they'll be paying full fees.
DeleteThis process has also been visible through the increase of their prices, but they're not showing any signs of leaving ZAG. Quite to the contrary.
Wow! Really nice!
ReplyDeleteDid Viktor mean quality of service, not quality of pax???
