A Trio of Flights on the Let L-410 Turbolet: Split to Zagreb via Pula and Osijek
Outside of their home country, Croatia, it may be fair to suggest that Trade Air is not a particularly well-known carrier, especially amongst non-enthusiasts. However having first taken to the skies in May 1995, the airline has been around for quite some time and outlived a number of Croatian airlines. Primarily specialising in charter services, at the time of my flight in March 2020, Trade Air’s fleet consisted of a single Airbus A319, four Airbus A320s and of note amongst enthusiasts, a rare Fokker 100. Alongside their charter operations, Trade Air maintains a network of domestic Public Service Obligation (PSO)

Following my usual course of action, I made my way over to Skyscanner and soon stumbled across a suitable flight. This took the form of an early morning

Trip Report: Zagreb primeclass lounge and Turkish Airlines Regional Business Class
After about one week visiting Croatia, I had to go to Saudi Arabia for some meetings. (so much for the name of my website) From the main bus station in Zagreb, the airport bus took around 30-35 minutes. (fyi, it was roughly the same time coming into the city) Flying Turkish Airlines out of a Star Alliance hublet — for Croatia Airlines — there was at least one benefit: priority security screening for Star Alliance passengers in business class/with airline status. However, immigration was a bit of cluster*, as the airport still made Schengen zone-bound passengers queue

A Scenic Dash 8 Q400 Ride: Zagreb to Split with Croatia Airlines
After spending a couple of hours flying down from Stansted on a cramped and boiling hot Lauda Europe Airbus A320, I arrived in Zagreb and made it through Croatian immigration with a little under three hours to spare until my flight down to Split. Thus, once landside, I decided to head outside into the pleasant yet chilly Croatian spring air and made a short walk around the terminal’s car park. However, with nothing obvious to see or do near the terminal building, after around ten minutes I made my way back inside and journeyed up the long escalators to the
