As Croatia has a very good range of flight options, all of our holidays exclude flights, so that people can book these themselves. This allows for for maximum flexibility, and you get the best prices. Return flights to Split, Zadar or Dubrovnik are available from both London and Dublin, as well as various regional UK airports and most European capitals, starting from £100/120€ return.
To assist you with flights we have prepared the tables below (with links to the relevant airlines), showing the main UK and Irish flight options. Additional flights are however often added for short durations during the season, so for an up to date list as well as checking for departures from other countries, we suggest that you do a quick search on www.skyscanner.net.
For exact timings and prices for specific flights you will have to check each individual airlines web site to see what the costs are for any particular date.
Zadar Airport is the nearest Airport to Murter which is where we operate our Flotilla, Learn to sail, Bareboat and Sample Package Holidays from. Zadar Airport is a little over 50 miles, while Split Airport is just over 60 miles from Murter. For anybody using either of these airports, we offer shared transfers on Saturdays for 25€ per person, each way, with group rates for larger parties and tailor made transfers available on request on other days.
For Bareboat Charters or people combining some sailing with some independent traveling in Croatia, then is a case of choosing the flight options that best suit your traveling preferences, and we offer Bareboat charter from ports all along the Croatian coast.
For guidance on travelling around in Croatia using local buses etc please see Croatia Public Transport
Before searching for flights, please note the following
Unless specifically arranged otherwise, all Bareboat charters, Flotillas and Learn to Sail Holidays start from 1700hrs on Saturday afternoons, but you do not normally sail until Sunday morning, so any Saturday to Saturday flight is ok, including late arrivals.
Mid week flights can be much cheaper, so if you have the time, it is often well worth considering spending a few days on either side of a sailing week just having a conventional holiday in Croatia and we are happy to provide advice and suggestions on request. For sample accommodation and flotilla sailing packages using Wednesday flights please see here
The nearest International airports in Croatia to our base on Murter, are Split (60 miles) and Zadar (50 miles). Using alternative airports to get to our base is normally only suitable if you have a few extra days and plan some additional traveling around, but Bareboat charter is also available from Dubrovnik, Makarska, Pula and Rijeka.
Not all flights run all season so please check with the individual airlines for their exact timetables.

None of the above airports are near enough to our flotilla base on Murter to provide easy transfers from the airport. They are all however ideal if you are taking a bareboat charter from a port near that particular airport (for most of the season yachts are available on Saturday's only) or combining a sailing trip from Murter with some traveling around in Croatia either before or after the sailing. The following is therefore a list of the main low cost, scheduled and charter flights that we are aware of, but this list is not complete, so please also check with your local departure airport for alternative flights..
