Russia's national airline Aeroflot will not return to the Zagreb airport this winter, Croatian Aviation reports.

Aeroflot suspended flights on the Moscow-Zagreb route at the time the pandemic broke out and did not operate them in the summer flight schedule this year, reports the Index portal.

Under normal circumstances, Aeroflot operated on the Moscow-Zagreb route every day, both in summer and in winter.

This summer, Aeroflot, along with Zagreb, did not fly to the other two destinations in Croatia, Split and Dubrovnik, although flights to Split had been announced to restart from August.

The first regular flight between Zagreb and Moscow is currently scheduled for March 28, 2021, when the summer flight schedule also begins.

Therefore, Moscow and Zagreb will be without a direct air line for over a year.

As stated, many airlines withdrew from the Zagreb airport, and the traffic dropped significantly.

In the first nine months of this year, the airport served a little more than 785,200 passengers, which is 70 percent less than in the same period in 2019.
