Spaniards Increase Flights To Croatia

Text

Spanish touristic operators announce an increase of services lease and capacities in Croatia for the forthcoming tourist season.

Individual touristic operators from Spain even doubled the number of charter flights for the main season. When it comes to the expected significant increase of Spanish tourist arrivals, which are characterised with a rising trend for the past few years, tourist employees warn that the demand from the Spanish market this year will be larger than the offer, the Poslovni dnevnik daily writes.

Croatia was a great discovery for Spanish tourists last year

Mainly because of a lack of regular flights from Spain which would enable the season`s extension, they hope positive news from the Spanish market might stimulate the airlines as well to introduce direct flights. Croatia was a great discovery to Spanish tourists last year- 32 percent Spaniards more visited our country than the year before, realising 35 percent more of overnight stays. And that there will be more, recently conducted Spanish tourist fair FITUR showed.
