  • For the best chance at a low fare, aim to book around 5 weeks before you fly. On this route, that window historically saves about 36% versus last-minute pricing (KAYAK booking data, last 12 months).
  • If you can choose when to travel, plan your London to Zagreb trip for November. Fares historically average £99 return in that month – typically £115 less than the most expensive month, which is December (based on the last 12 months).

When flights on this route do arrive late, the average delay is 1 hour51 minutes, so choosing an airline with strong on-time performance can make a difference on tight schedules.
  • If you have the time, taking a 1-stop flight through Bergamo Orio Al Serio Airport (BGY) can be cheaper than flying direct. The cheapest stopover option averages £78 return on this route – about £56 less than direct flights (based on the last 12 months).
  • You can travel directly from London to Zagreb from 2 airports in London. London Heathrow (LHR) has better facilities and is the closest to the city centre, so might be good for business travellers, whereas London Stansted (STN) is to the north of the city and is where the budget airlines fly from, so might offer a cheaper option.
  • For those who don’t live in central London, Stansted Airport might be more conveniently located, as it’s just off the M11 at junction 8a. Alternatively, you could take an indirect flight from Gatwick Airport (GTW), which is to the south of the city, should you live in the south of the UK.
  • When you have landed at Franjo Tudjman Airport, you can reach nearby places such as Samobor in 30min and Sisak in 45min, making it a great starting point for exploring Croatia.
  • Before your departure, you can enjoy a range of lounges to put you in a great mood ahead of your flight. If you’re flying directly, you can enjoy lounges such as Aspire Lounge in Heathrow Airport from about £25 per person and Escape Lounge in Stansted from about £20 per person, both of which offer complimentary food, drinks and Wi-Fi.
  • You could always stay at a hotel the night before if you have an early flight. At Heathrow Airport, you can stay at the Aerotel, which is only a short walk from where the British Airways flights leave form, whereas at Stansted, you could opt for a hotel such as the Holiday Inn, which is right next to the terminal.
  • To reach London Heathrow Airport (LHR) from the city centre using public transport, the most convenient option is the Heathrow Express train service, which provides fast and direct connections from Paddington Station to the airport. Alternatively, travellers can use the London Underground's Piccadilly line, which offers a more economical but slightly slower journey to the airport.
  • For travellers with early morning flights from London Stansted Airport (STN), the on-site Radisson Blu Hotel and Hampton by Hilton London Stansted Airport are excellent choices. Both hotels offer comfortable accommodations, convenient access to the terminal, and amenities like complimentary breakfast, making them ideal for a seamless and stress-free departure.
