United Airlines is making it easier for American travelers to explore Croatia. The airline has extended its Newark-to-Dubrovnik flights through October 24, 2025, thanks to growing demand for this scenic destination. Initially set to end in late September, this route will continue daily flights until the end of September. Afterward, the service will reduce to four flights per week. This extension comes as a result of strong interest in Dubrovnik, a city known for its rich history and stunning views.
In 2024, United Airlines transported nearly 30,000 passengers on this route, achieving an impressive 89.8% occupancy rate. The daily service has proven to be popular among U.S. travelers, with Dubrovnik becoming an increasingly sought-after destination. The airline’s decision to extend the service signals the city’s growing importance as a tourist hub. As demand for transatlantic travel continues to increase, the extension provides a unique opportunity for visitors to experience Dubrovnik beyond the summer season.
In 2025, United Airlines will operate daily flights to Dubrovnik’s Rudjer Bošković Airport. This marks a significant milestone, as daily service to this Croatian destination becomes a permanent feature. As travelers flock to Dubrovnik for its captivating architecture and beautiful coastline, the extended service ensures they can visit during the quieter months as well. This change will benefit not only tourists but also local businesses that depend on seasonal travel.
The extended flights also contribute to a stronger connection between the United States and Croatia. By offering more options for travelers, United Airlines strengthens tourism between the two countries, providing greater economic opportunities for Dubrovnik. As the city continues to grow in popularity, the future of this route looks bright, and it will help make Dubrovnik even more accessible to American travelers.
