ITA Airways and Croatia Airlines have announced an extension of their codeshare agreement to enhance connectivity between Italy and Croatia further.

According to a joint statement, the existing codeshare partnership includes routes connecting Rome (FCO) with Zagreb, Split, and Dubrovnik, operated by Croatia Airlines and shared with ITA Airways.

The expansion will see the Croatian airline’s OU code added to ITA Airways’ domestic flights between Rome and Palermo, Bologna, Florence, and Naples.

Croatia Airlines currently operates two weekly flights from Dubrovnik to Rome and one daily flight from Split to Rome, both serving as stopovers for flights originating in Zagreb.

"This enhanced codeshare agreement between ITA Airways and Croatia Airlines will provide both business and leisure travelers with more options and convenience when flying within the networks of both airlines. Italy will be more accessible to Croatia Airlines’ customers, thanks to seamless connections from Rome to the mentioned domestic destinations," ITA Airways stated.

"Similarly, ITA Airways will benefit from increased passenger flows between Italy and Croatia, catering to both leisure and business travelers," they concluded.
