Hotel, apartment, or the harbour — your driver collects you from your exact Split address and takes you straight to the Zadar Airport terminal.
From central Split to the Zadar Airport check-in desks in around 1 hour 27 minutes — 144 km of mostly A1 motorway, exiting on Zadar’s inland side straight to the airport.
Tell us your flight time and we work backwards to set the right Split pickup — enough margin for the drive and check-in at Zadar Airport, without leaving absurdly early.
Plenty of Zadar flights leave early. We run 24 hours, so a 4 AM or 5 AM pickup from your Split accommodation is arranged without fuss.
Zadar Airport (ZAD) sits southeast of the city, away from the centre. Your driver knows the exact terminal approach and drops you right at departures — no wrong turns, no confusion.
Choose a vehicle sized for your bags. Your driver loads and unloads everything — far more comfortable than a packed intercity bus for the run north.
The motorway toll for the 144 km north is built into your price. One figure covers fuel, tolls, and taxes — nothing extra at the terminal kerb.
Reserve your Split to Zadar Airport taxi in minutes with no card details upfront — pay the driver directly on arrival at the terminal.
Catching a flight out of Zadar Airport (ZAD) but staying in Split? Book your split transfers with Go Shuttle and your driver will collect you from your Split accommodation and deliver you directly to the Zadar Airport departures terminal — 144 km of mostly A1 motorway in around 1 hour 27 minutes. Many travellers based in Split end up flying from Zadar because of a better fare or schedule; this transfer makes that an easy, predictable hop with no intercity bus changes and no driving yourself.
A private transfer from Split to Zadar Airport with Go Shuttle runs entirely on your schedule. Tell us your departure flight time and Split pickup address when booking, and we calculate the ideal pickup — with a sensible buffer for the drive and check-in, even for an early morning flight.
Your transfer begins at your Split accommodation. Your Go Shuttle driver arrives at the agreed time, loads your luggage, and joins the A1 motorway heading north. The bulk of the 144 km is steady motorway driving, which makes the timing reliable — an important thing when there is a flight to catch.
Zadar Airport lies southeast of Zadar city, on the inland side near Zemunik — so your driver exits the motorway and reaches the terminal without going into Zadar itself. That keeps the run direct and the arrival time predictable. You are dropped at the departures kerb with luggage unloaded, ready to check in.
Share your flight time and Split pickup address when booking and we will set the pickup so you reach the terminal with comfortable time to spare.
Zadar Airport recommends arriving roughly 2 hours before international departures. With the drive from Split running around 1 hour 27 minutes, we suggest leaving Split at least 3.5 to 4 hours before your flight in peak summer, when the A1 can be busier. Give us your exact flight time at booking and we will pin down the right Split pickup for you.
Every Go Shuttle booking from Split to Zadar Airport includes:
Provide your Split pickup address and departure flight time when booking — we will confirm the ideal pickup time for a comfortable journey to the terminal.

Reaching Zadar Airport from Split by public transport means an intercity bus plus an airport shuttle — a change with luggage that eats up over 3 hours and adds uncertainty on a travel day. For getting to a flight on time, a pre-booked private transfer timed to your departure is the dependable choice, and for two or more it usually beats a metered taxi or one-way rental on price.
