Looking for a zadar airport transfer to Split? Whether you've landed at Zadar Airport (ZAD) and need to continue south to Split, or you're combining Zadar Airport with Split as part of a broader Croatian itinerary, a private transfer with Go Shuttle covers the 143 km to Split in approximately 1 hour 28 minutes — meet and greet in arrivals, all motorway tolls included, and direct delivery to any Split destination.
The Zadar Airport to Split transfer is a popular choice for travellers arriving into ZAD and heading directly to Split, or completing a one-way trip between northern and central Dalmatia. Your Go Shuttle driver will be waiting in the Zadar Airport arrivals hall with a name board — flight monitored in real time so any delays are automatically accounted for.
Zadar Airport (ZAD) to Split — Private Transfer
The transfer from Zadar Airport to Split begins in the arrivals hall — your Go Shuttle driver waiting with a name board, ready to assist with luggage as you exit customs. The 143 km to Split is covered in approximately 1 hour 28 minutes via the A1 motorway — Croatia's main north-south highway — which provides an efficient and direct connection between the Zadar region and Split, bypassing the slower coastal road entirely.
Go Shuttle monitors your Zadar Airport arrival in real time. If your flight is delayed, your driver is notified automatically and waits in arrivals — no extra charge for flight delays. You will never walk out of customs to find your driver has left or isn't present. Your driver delivers you to any Split destination: hotel, ferry port for island connections to Brač, Hvar, or Vis, or Split Airport if you have an onward flight from SPU.
✈️ Arrival tip: Zadar Airport is a compact airport — baggage claim and customs clearance are generally quick. Allow approximately 30–45 minutes from landing to exiting the arrivals hall, then 1 hour 28 minutes of transfer time to Split. Your driver monitors your flight and will be in position when you exit. If you have a ferry connection in Split, let us know the departure time when booking so the driver can plan accordingly.
