Sažetak
Globalization and economic development are the main drivers of demand for passenger and goods transport. Although liberalization generally opens the way for a rapid economic growth, there are still many countries that are trying to oppose the liberalization by using administrative measures. Administrative barriers, the disintegration of Yugoslavia, development of the independent states, war and uncertainty of air traffic are some of the reasons for having waited for more than 20 years and still a regular flight between Zagreb and some of the destinations in the United States has not been established. The demand for air transport services is one of the key determinants that affect the establishment of new lines. To re-establish regular long haul flights, numerous analyses of traffic flows should be carried out, potential air carriers detected, as well as the regulations and directives in the field of air transport analysed, so as to have the results showing the potential of the Zagreb International Airport and its catchment area. By signing the "Agreement between the European Union and the United States on air transport” with the impact of all EU Member States according to the " Open Skies Agreement", an important step was made in the normalization of the international air traffic status. It meant the creation of open air space in the transatlantic zone, without any restrictions in air traffic. This means that, for the first time European and American airlines can, without any limitation, conduct traffic from any point in the EU to any point in the United States and vice versa. Following the research of demand for air transport services, potential of catchment area of the Zagreb International Airport and detecting potential carriers, regarding their fleet and spectrum of destinations serviced in Europe, it will be possible to determine the likelihood of establishing direct lines in transatlantic traffic.
