this opportunity, Korean Air will support in reinforcing trade and
tourism relations between Croatia and Korea.”
Mr.
Jacques Feron, CEO of Zagreb International Airport, said, “We are
extremely proud that our efforts in connecting Zagreb with Asia
all year round and in continually enriching the overall offer of
flights show results. Almost half a million South Korea's tourists
visited Croatia last year and therefore we believe that this line

recorded at Franjo Tuđman Airport, as well to the tourist results
and the image of Zagreb.”
