Zagreb Airport Transfer: Your Complete Guide

Welcome to Zagreb Airport

Franjo Tuđman Airport (ZAG) is Croatia's largest international airport, located approximately 20 km southeast of Zagreb city center. Whether you're visiting for business or pleasure, a smooth airport transfer sets the tone for your entire trip.

Airport Overview

The modern terminal, opened in 2017, handles over 3 million passengers annually. The single-terminal design makes navigation straightforward, with arrivals on the ground floor and departures on the upper level.

After Landing

Immigration and Customs

EU citizens can use the fast-track lanes. Non-EU travelers should have their passport and any required visas ready. Croatia is not yet in the Schengen Area, so passport control is required.

Baggage Claim

Follow signs to the baggage hall. Luggage trolleys are available for free. If your bags are delayed, the lost luggage counter is located in the arrivals area.

Meeting Your Driver

Our drivers wait in the arrivals hall, holding a sign with your name. We track your flight, so even if you're delayed, we'll be there when you emerge.
