Split

Zračna Luka Split – Split Airport (SPU)

You can fly into this airport from most major airports in Europe via Zagreb. Direct flights from London, Paris, Munich, Frankfurt, and Rome with regular airlines are possible, but they do not fly daily. You can also look into smaller low cost companies flying from the following locations: Bratislava, Cologne, Stuttgart, Berlin, London, and Oslo, about 2-3 times a week.

This airport is located about 17 miles west of Split and about 7 miles east of Trogir. The airport has a restaurant, shops, a bank where money can be exchanged, a post office, and a market with souvenirs and other items. We recommend getting to and from the airport by bus or by taxi.
