FAQs - booking Croatia flights

  • Will I need a visa to enter Croatia?

    Like many other European countries, United States nationals do not require a visa to stay in Croatia for a duration of up to 90 days. However, unlike much of Europe, Croatia is not part of the Schengen Zone, meaning that your stay in Croatia will not affect how long you can stay in Schengen countries in the allotted 180-day time frame.

  • Are there nonstop flights to Croatia?

    Although there are flights available from the United States to several different cities in Croatia, the only nonstop flights between the two countries arrive in Dubrovnik. Nonstop flights from the US to Dubrovnik fly exclusively out of Philadelphia, so you’ll be facing at least one layover if you’re flying out of another city.

  • I want to visit the Plitvice Lakes, what city should I fly into?

    The Plitvice Lakes are among the most popular tourist attractions in Croatia, and they lie an almost equal distance from Zagreb and Zadar, which means that you can shop for the cheapest fare and take your pick of which city to fly into when planning your flight from the US. The route to the lakes is similar from both cities as well, as you’ll have to take a bus to the city’s central bus station and a bus from there to Plitvice.

  • What city should I fly to if I’m visiting Hvar?

    Hvar is a popular domestic and international tourist destination in Croatia, but it isn’t directly accessible by plane. To visit Hvar, you can book a flight from the US to either Split or Dubrovnik - both cities are equally convenient to Hvar. After your flight lands, you can board a ferry to Hvar from both cities, and the travel time from both cities is similar.

  • Does Zagreb Airport in Croatia have any facilities for children?

    If you are traveling to Croatia with kids, Zagreb Airport is the ideal airport to land in as it has some facilities for passengers with kids. The airport has baby care facilities where you can attend to your child’s breastfeeding and diaper change needs. You can also utilize the children’s play areas airside close to gates 4, 5, 12, and 13.

  • What transport options do I have from Zagreb Airport to the city center?

    Buses are a common means of transit in Croatia. You can take the Pleso prijevoz airport shuttle offering transit between the Central Bus Station and the airport. The buses run at about 35- minute intervals. Zagreb Electronic Tram line 290 also provides transit between the airport, Velika Gorica, and Kvaternik Square. You can also rent a vehicle from the rental companies in the airport for transit across Croatia. Metered taxis are also available at the arrivals level on the ground floor in case you prefer taxi services.

  • Can I rent a vehicle at Split Airport?

    Yes. When flying into Split Airport from the US, using a rental vehicle for transit throughout the country is ideal. You don’t have to go to the city to rent a vehicle as the airport offers the service. Car rental agencies serving Split Airport include Avis, Budget, Europcar, Hertz, Oryx, and Dollar. You can visit any rental agency and drive out of the airport with your rented vehicle.

  • Does Dubrovnik Airport have any airport lounges?

    When flying into Dubrovnik Airport from the US, there is a lounge that you can visit upon landing. The Business Lounge in terminal A on the airside is accessible using a lounge membership program. You can access the lounge regardless of the class you fly. The lunge access is using a membership program.

  • What is KAYAK's "flexible dates" feature and why should I care when looking for a flight from the United States to Croatia?

The flight itself was fine, food was expired and gross, staff were mostly amazing! KLM messed up rebooking for our first two flights that got cancelled and we almost didn’t make it to Amsterdam for an additional two days

The flight itself was fine, food was expired and gross, staff were mostly amazing! KLM messed up rebooking for our first two flights that got cancelled and we almost didn’t make it to Amsterdam for an additional two days

I think I previously submitted my feedback about flight lead Katherine in a different field by mistake. Please see those comments. Comments for Hyd to AMS are it was good. The flight lead and service met expectations for satisfactory high quality service but the flight lead did not stand out as exceptional as did the leads on the other two flights so I don’t remember anything specific one way or the other besides the fact I was satisfied.

Had to cancel and rebook, KLM connection was cancelled prior to departure, ended up flying to Munich on non-Delta carrier.

The crew were unprofessional with a racist element. I was physically abused as well from one of the crew members

They forgot to serve food and the crew was very unfriendly. Never experienced such a bad KLM flight. Usually fly from Toronto. New York was different.

Over 1 Hr delay. No APU so no AC on ground. Plane was hot during boarding and then they closed the doors over 20 minutes before engine start so interior of plane was steamy hot and stuffy. Could have been helped by opening doors until ready to depart.

My flight was delayed by 6 hours then I missed BOTH of my connecting flights, I then had to stay in the AIRPORT at JFK because soooooo many people also suffered from missing flights and there was no hotels available. I would like to be compensated for this experience! I had to stay in the airport for over 16 hours!

Cabin crew were excellent, very proffesional, polite and friendly, in flight snack was underwhelming, a packet of cheese biscuits, im sure KLM could run to a sandwich!

The flight was delayed for 2 hrs. Because they didn’t have a crew to fly. And it is not a first time for klm to do that. Last time they cancelled my filght and rebooked me 3 days later. Not reliable airline

The worst airline. Cancelled flight 30 min before boarding and rebooked on flight after 3 days.

The seats were great and the service was even better. Thank you!

The WiFi on the plane was out. I also thought movie options were lacking.

They changed my seat assignment from window to middle. I have a physical need to sit by the window because of spinal issues. I unboarded in pain, I also was placed between 2 very large men. I am very disappointed and now dealing with the physical aftermath.

These Delta 717 jets are ancient. No entertainment and you have to pay for WiFi that barely works and goes in and out the whole flight. Delta should be ashamed flying this garbage.

The crew were awesome and ready to help as much as possible. The gate agent in Atlanta was tremendously helpful. The delays were ridiculous. Getting home at 4am when I could have driven home faster was unimpressive. Being delayed for countless hours through the night wasn't a great travel experience.

The staff and crew were wonderful. The delays were atrocious. The missed connections problematic. Getting home at 4am and having to go to work at 8 am, not a great situation. The gate agent in Huntsville was amazing. She helped everyone efficiently and with excellent problem solving skills. Her communication was helpful, timely, and thoughtful.

My seat was changed without my consent. It wasn’t a major deal but annoying.

Great quik boarding, friendly gate agent and crew. Let early

I somehow thought my food preferences was saved to my account— everything had dairy and couldn’t eat anything.

My disconnecting flight was missed due to a large delay at my originating airport. I missed an entire day and evening of my vacation abroad because of Delta, not being able to get me on different flights that lined up with my original times. A 12 hour travel day turned into 24 grueling hours.

The taxi drivers are very rude. Didn’t wait. They said you come in 5minutes or I leave. Did not leave any messages on front desk and they left. We have to hire new cabs in turkey.

Everything was good except for the seating arrangements. We could not get seats to be seated together with my wife. We’re unfortunately.

My first time in business class The in flt staff was outstanding in every aspect of service, the food was amazing, the business seat space made the 11 hour journey easy peazy

It was good, but always can be better. The airplane was old.

I always travel on Turkish Airlines but seriously I am I am considering to change because this is not the first time that the flight attendant are rude and they dont help. I asked for cold water with ice 5 times and I got water with no ice and this is not the first time to ask for something and you dont get it. Also I noticed this behavior only towards people who are not turkish.

There were not enough extra leg room options to purchase. Also the seat Infront of mine was broken and the gentleman literally laid back into my lap for the whole trip. This was the most uncomfortable trip I have ever been on

A lot of things can be done to improve in flight experience

Average at every level . Poor entertainment selection. Boarding was very poor and disorganized. Flight was late by one hour .

Spent over $20k on for business class tickets from DFW. They used a very old Boeing 777 with old Business class cabin which was unclean and stained seats. On a route they normally operate the modern Boeing 787. The cabin heat was set to hot for 11 hours. On the IST LHE route the business class experience got even worse. They operate an even older Airbus A330 where trip was falling apart, seat recline did not operate and the whole experience left us hugely disappointed. Next time we likely will shift to better quality product which stands up to their hype. Turkish need to relook at their fleet plans and not use their worst assets of perceived week markets such as Pakistan.

The flight from Houston to Chicago was delayed, causing us to miss our connecting flight to Madrid, losing our Rental Car booking in Bologna taking alternative travel routes to get to our initial destination in Pizza by the 15th. We got the notification of the delay as we were traveling the 3 1/2 hours from Corpus Christi, Texas to Houston Texas for the initial flight. The delays hauling luggage all over Milan‘s Central train station to catch trains to get to Pizza the same day resulting us arriving in Pizza at 2 AM leaving us no time to rest as there was a 9 o’clock checkout time the next morning. The first 72 hours of the trip with nothing but headache, a knee injury from the excessive walking and a delayed car rental replacement, which ended up costing significantly more.

Excellent. I had a medical emergency on flight SNA-ORD and the attendants were very helpful.

The united employees at the gate treated me very rudely and called me nefarious

The food was horrible. There was no. Wifi, and it was just terrible from bangkok to d. C

My flight got cancelled. Couldn’t get my luggage. It arrived at my destination ahead of me. I didn’t get my preordered meal. Had to spend the night in the airport.

The crew was good, the WiFi was amazing, but the plane was meh. Uncomfortable first class, not enough room for baggage. My stuff ended up being behind my seat, so I had to sit on the plane for 20 minutes before I could get to it after landing.

food /beverage service was limited to one time which was unexpected for a flight that long. food wasn't very good.

United did nit provide any updated on flight crew not bein available until boarding time started. It was bad. Itws alate night flight and there no proactive communication and iha d an important meeting that i missed due to thus

From the boarding crew to the FAs was such a good team. All with smiles and positive energy. The pilots made an announcement of us waiting on some passengers who were late landing and I didn’t hear one person feel like it was an inconvenience which was wonderful. Massive kudos to all that worked that flight. Everyone was united. 😊💙

Smooth flight, easy boarding process. Made up time in the air with initial delay due to weather pass through

Flight was over two hours late, but they notified us early in the morning. They ended up changing planes the food on board that was extremely mediocre and we were in premier class.

They left a little late, contributing to our missed flight.

Great. Only issue…the cabin was kept as warm as a sauna.

United did a good job of communicating before the flight, but a simple notice about the expected time for the completion of repairs to the broken navigation services (which closed the airport for the day) would’ve helped to clarify our expectations. With so many cancelled flights on the 21st of September, a little certainty about our own departure would’ve helped. Because of the disruption, the plane was quite empty, and at 6‘5“ I was able to steal a little extra legroom from the empty adjacent seat. However, I am still waiting for the day when I can sit in a standard economy seat and simply straighten my legs. Cabin crew were amazing. Great attitude, and moments of fun with passengers.

Lufthansa was great. Crew on board excellent. Frankfort passport control horrible it took about two hours to get through. After waiting in line for hours there was a discussion with the passenger in front of me that was taking forever. The couple behind me had a connecting flight to Turkey in 30 minutes and asked border control officer of her situation and the control officer told the couple in a nasty tone if you don’t like it you can go to another line which would have surely made her miss the flight. Border patrol officers were not helpful. Finally made it through I had to exit and reentry for security check for my connecting flight which Lufthansa changed gates and I had to run to get to A60. Which it seemed 2 kilometers to get to but I made it. If i fid not have 2.5 hrs layover i would have missed my connecting flight to Milan. Not sure if I will fly through Frankfort in the future.

TV wasn’t working, flight attendants never came when turning on the light, luggage was delayed and when delivered it was broken. No suitcase for the rest of our 2 week trip with no response when claimed filed

The service and flight was great. Luggage came out very quickly!

I ended up in Lufthansa to Zagreb because of our delay

Turns out you cannot use the Lufthansa app to check I for flights bought from a 3rd party. Had to locate someone to ticket me in Frankfurt. I was not the only one. What a hassle.

My flight from Munich to Zagreb was canceled, no one bothered to let me know. I only found out when I came to check in in Denver. Kayak company wouldn't even issue me a new flight. They said that United Airlines holds my ticket. With United I was around 90 minutes call with supervisor who was trying to explain that she can't help me change canceled flight, Kayak agency should do this. On the end she issued a new flight with 24 hrs overlay I Munich. The whole ordeal was so traumatizing for me. I am a women traveling alone. No one offered hotel or any tipe of help in Munich. Traveling these days is so poor, No one is taking any responsibility for anything, we are left to suffer their unorganized mess, and pay really good money for it. I was not gonna wait 24 hrs in Munich, I had to take taxi to city and took a bus to Zagreb. Terrible experience all around.

I paid over $1500 for the flight. I requested a refund, but all they gave me in return was $100.
