Adriatic Corridor's Traffic Evolution

Paper is focused on analysis of three-month traffic evolution, since at January 2000 international air routes re-opened and Adriatic Corridor established through Croatian airspace, and on assessment of father development trend within the context of the European countries integration process. That is articulated in the sense of European ATM 2000+ Strategy towards an integrated European air traffic management network. From the Croatian point of view, the positive development projection is based on the fully reintegration of the air routes for overflying traffic, and also on recently established Adriatic Corridor, which includes the new RNAV routes in European routes network. Besides the positive impact on air traffic development in Croatia, those new routes would contribute in a wider region to a more rational usage of geo-traffic facilities and take the load of the existing European corridors. From the aspect of its geo-traffic position, the Croatian airspace provides the possibility of choosing the shortest air routes between North-west Europe and the Near East. The recent developments are aligned with the overall capacity enhancement plans developed within the EATMP, and are cooperative achievement of ICAO, EUROCONTROL and the relevant authorities of the States involved.
