Those are the words of CCL\u2019s Director General Vlado Bagari\u0107 at the panel \u201cBusy Croatian and European Skies” held at the conference \u201cCroatia as We Need It \u2013 Future of Transport in Croatia” organized by Ve\u010dernji list which took place yesterday and was attended by Jasmin Baji\u0107, Director of Croatia Airlines, Luk\u0161a Novak, Director of Split Airport, and Kristjan Stani\u010di\u0107, Director of Croatian National Tourist Board.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere are nine functional airspace blocks in Europe and that is the expected future number of air navigation service providers; we must invest in people and knowledge to remain competitive,\u201d said CCL’s DG.<\/p>\n
\u201cCroatian airports recorded more than nine million passengers last year, which is a growth of 18 per cent compared to the previous year,\u201d said Luk\u0161a Novak, adding that around 20 million passengers are expected by 2030, which is twice as many as this year. The director of the Croatian National Tourist Board explained that a significant contributing factor to the mentioned growth was the campaign of branding Croatia as an airline destination.<\/p>\n
When discussing the future of the Croatian national airline, the director of Croatia Airlines thinks that the state should by all means keep the controlling interest in the company, where for the Minister of the Sea, Transport and Infrastructure Oleg Butkovi\u0107 finding a strategic partner for Croatia Airlines is one of the biggest challenges in the air traffic sector. In his introductory speech at the conference, Butkovi\u0107 described air traffic as \u201cthe simplest and the cleanest\u201d, saying that in the first quarter of 2018 the traffic grew by 20 per cent compared to the previous year, which is a result of investments in airport infrastructure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
