Plan of action

How to get to Croatia

Direct routes from UK (Croatian Airways and EasyJet) take about 2.5 hours, from London. Split is becoming an increasingly popular destination for people from western Europe, so make sure you book your tickets as early as you can. The time table for this summer is already published. British Airways, unfortunately, stopped flights to Split this year. EasyJet and Croatian Airways price tickets at about 200 euros. For crew and skippers from USA, Lufthansa flies to Croatia, prices from $1000. For antipodeans, it’s best to fly to Europe and then get one of the budget airlines to Split.
