ZAGREB, June 1 (Hina) – The Czech transport company RegioJet plans to introduce a rail service connecting Prague and the northern Adriatic port of Rijeka directly, the dpa news agency has reported.
Negotiations are nearing the end, spokesman for RegioJet Ales Ondruj was quoted by the dpa as saying on Monday, adding that the sale of tickets could start in the next few days.
Due to the coronavirus pandemic, many Czech nationals will be spending summer vacation in their homeland, but they still consider Croatia an attractive tourist destination due to a relatively low number of those infected with COVID 19.
The Czech Republic is planning to ease travel between the central European country and other countries, including Croatia, deemed safe from risks of coronavirus from June 8, Health Minister Adam Vojtech said in May.
