ZAGREB, 18 May 2021 – Days after United Airlines announced that it would increase frequencies on its new New York – Dubrovnik service, the airline has made another change on the route.
United Airlines last month announced that it would launch a New York — Newark — Dubrovnik service on 8 July. Initially the service was to operate 3 times weekly until 3 October, but last week the airline confirmed it would increase the service to 4 weekly flights.
Today, United Airlines said it will bring their launch forward and will now commence flights on 1 July, Croatia Aviation reported.
The airline will use a Boeing 767-300ER with 30 United Polaris business class seats on the New York to Dubrovnik service which will operate on Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays.
From Dubrovnik to New York flights will leave on Tuesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. The flights will be timed to connect in Newark to over 65 cities in North America.
Flights are set to run until 3 October.
Delta will also fly from New York to Dubrovnik from July 3 from JFK on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. Flights from Dubrovnik will depart on Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays.
