Croatia Airlines rejected take off on flight from Zagreb to Dubrovnik

Croatia Airlines Airbus A319-112, registration 9A-CTH on a flight from Zagreb to Dubrovnik, aborted its take off on runway 04 today.

AvioRadar has learned that around 15:00 local time, the aircraft began its approach to the runway, and due to a bird strike during its take off roll, the crew aborted the takeoff. The plane stopped on the runway and after some time it left the runway and taxied towards the east terminal of Zagreb Airport.

Because of this event, an Air France airplane on a flight from Paris had to abandon its final aproach to runway 04. It was a second go-around of this aircraft in a row, first one was due to an unstable approach.

However, the same aircraft departed on a flight OU662/CTN8A to Dubrovnik at 16:10 local time, using the same aircraft.
