May 16, 2019 (newstodate): Croatia has long harboured the wish for direct air links with Japan - and the vision seems to be gaining fresh ground.
A new round of talks on the introduction of scheduled services between the two countries are on the agenda, with finalization of a new Air Services Agreement as the top priority.
-Discussions between the aeronautical authorities of Japan and the Republic of Croatia are continuing. A tentative framework has been reached until the conclusion of an Air Services Agreement between the two countries. Considering the possibility and forecasts, there is sufficient air traffic demand for scheduled air services between Japan and the Republic of Croatia in the future, a statement from Japan's Ministry for Foreign Affairs reads.
Japan Air Lines has been a regular charter guest at Croatian airports for years, with summer flights from various Japanese destinations including Tokyo, Nagoya, Hiroshima and Sapporo.
