Croatia Airlines FAQs

Find quick answers to the most common questions about flying with Croatia Airlines.

What cabin suitcase and personal bag can I bring in Croatia Airlines Economy?

One cabin bag up to 8 kg and 55 × 40 × 23 cm, plus one personal item up to 4 kg and 40 × 30 × 10 cm. Both size and weight limits apply.

Is there a charge if Croatia Airlines moves a compliant cabin bag to the hold because space is limited?

No additional charge applies for aircraft-space limitations. Noncompliant bags may attract charges; failure to meet piece, size, weight or fare-family rules at the gate may also result in denied boarding.

Can a stroller or child car seat stay in the cabin when travelling with an infant on Croatia Airlines?

An infant may have a stroller, car seat or carrier and onboard baby food. Equipment is handed over for hold loading at the gate or before boarding. A car seat is allowed onboard only with a seat booked for the child. Lap infants have no other cabin-baggage entitlement.

When does Croatia Airlines online check-in open and close?

For eligible scheduled flights operated by Croatia Airlines, it opens 36 hours before departure and closes 60 minutes before departure. Flight exceptions apply; an OU flight number alone does not guarantee eligibility.

If I checked in online with Croatia Airlines, when should I reach bag drop?

Arrive at bag drop no later than 90 minutes before departure. Airport check-in is recommended 120 minutes beforehand; the default check-in deadline is 60 minutes unless otherwise specified. Online check-in closure is not the bag-drop arrival time.

Why might online check-in be unavailable on some Croatia Airlines Split or Dubrovnik flights?

The published exceptions include OU380, OU381, OU4352, OU384, OU385, OU300 and OU301. Plan airport check-in rather than waiting for online availability, and confirm flight-specific and airport requirements.

Can I simply buy a regular child ticket online for a child flying alone on Croatia Airlines?

No. The airline describes children aged 5–12 travelling alone as unaccompanied minors. Book and pay through a sales office or Contact Center; these tickets cannot be bought on its website.

What documents does an unaccompanied child need on Croatia Airlines?

Prepare the ticket, passport, applicable visa and unaccompanied-minor form with the child and both handover contacts details. Arrive earlier than the usual recommended check-in time for document checks.

May I leave after handing my child to Croatia Airlines staff, and how is the child collected?

The accompanying person must remain at the airport until departure. On arrival, staff hand the child to the person named on the form, who must identify themselves and sign it.

Can a 12–18-year-old travel alone with Croatia Airlines, and are there operating-carrier exceptions?

Parents may request unaccompanied-minor service, or the young passenger may travel normally subject to destination law. On Air France-operated OU4001 and OU4002, under-15s need an accompanying adult; Croatia Airlines cannot supply an escort.
