Dubrovnik Closest major airport to Dubronvic to fly back to NYC from?
Posted: Fri May 16, 2008 02:56 PM UTC
Hi all,

I will be touring the coast of Croatia starting from the north and ending in Dubrovnik. From there, I need a major airport to fly from back to NYC. I can get a relatively good price on Czech Airlines from Zagreb to NYC. What is the best (cheapest) way to get from Dubrovnik to Zagreb?

Alternatively, is there a better airport to fly to from Dubrnovnik for me to then fly from back to NYC?

Thanks!

Croatia airlines flies Dubrovnik to Zagreb. If you book early enough (online) you might get a really good price. www.croatiaairlines.com

Thanks! I may just do the Croatia airlines option.

I posted this is another thread, but I'd be curious of your opinions:


Prior to Croatia I will be in Zurich. I originally planned to take a train south to Rijeka (not even sure if this is possible yet), and then take a full week traveling the coast of Croatia ending in Dubrovnik.

Now I wonder if maybe it is better to somehow fly from Zurich straight to Dubrovnik and do my travels in reverse. Travel from Dubrovnik north and then head east to Zagreb. I don't really know the area, but looking at a map, I'm wondering how long it would take to travel to Zagreb from Cres - or from Rijeka??

I have a full week to either travel from north to south, then grab a flight on Croatia airlines out of Dubrovnik to Zagreb - spend a day there and then fly home the next day.

Or, take a flight from Zurich to Dubrovnik (if possible), travel north, and finally east to Zagreb all over the course of one week.

My only other question is: is there anything worth seeing between Zurich and northern Croatia that I would miss by flying straight to Dubrovnik?

Any help with either itinerary and/or opinions on which itinerary makes better sense are welcome!

Thanks :)

Not sure of your route bt Plitvice Lakes is certainly worth the effort to see.
