Air Croatia
Air Croatia was a Croatian virtual airline. It offered flights to European destinations from its base at Zagreb International Airport but was legally registered in London.
History
Originally the airline was founded in 2013 and planned to start operations by summer 2014, but this was rescheduled to 18 December 2014 and subsequently postponed to 1 March 2015, and then again until 2 April 2015, when the operations finally commenced. The airline originally announced it would operate an Embraer 170 but instead started to utilize an ATR 42-300 operated by Denim Air.Since November 2014, Air Croatia was in partnership with Hahn Air for ticket distribution via their Global Distribution System using the code H1. However, the airline continued to report poor sales for its flights to Prague, Rome and Budapest. Subsequently, the route from Zagreb to Budapest has been suspended after just one return flight operated.
As of 23 April 2015, all remaining routes were suspended due to a financial dispute between the airline and their contracted credit card payment agency leading to a lack of funding to fulfil their leasing payments to Denim Air.
