Default Getting from Trieste to Dubrovnik

Hi travellers

I noticed that one way flights from Dubrovnik to London at the end of
August are around £180-250 with BA. Flights from Trieste (or even
Rijeka) one way with Ryanair/Easyjet are only £65 and £75 so I
thought it would be a good move to get the flight from either of these
places.

The question is: what is the best way to get from Dubrovnik to either
Trieste or Rijeka?

Thanks in advance
Mike

There's a Jadrolinija ferry that goes between Rijeka and Dubrovnik.
I don't know if it's the best way though, as I remember it as taking
24 hours or so - it's a very long way.

Maybe it'd be better to find a cheaper airline flying from Dubrovnik
instead of travelling hundreds of miles up the Adriatic? For instance
http://www.germanwings.com/ and http://www.skyeurope.com/ both fly
from Dubrovnik. There must be plenty of cheap flights to London from
where they fly to.

for sure there will be many buses between Dubrovnik ( Ragusa) and Rijeka (
Fiume )
it is about 450 kms

from Fiume to trieste it is about 1.30 minutes

Thanks guys. I checked out the websites and the fares are a lot cheaper
then what I have already seen on BA. £135 from Dubrovnik to London or
even cheaper if I book 2 seperate flights via Bonn. I think I will take
one of these options then travel the coast back up again :-).

Cheers
Mike

If you decide to do this, check the schedule way ahead of time. The ferry
only comes through once or twice a week. It's not like in Greece where they
run all the time. I sure hope Croatia learns to use its ferries as a tourist
draw soon.
