Split Saint Jerome Airport (SPU) is in Kaštela, on the west side of Kaštela Bay, west of Split and close to Trogir. It has one terminal: the 2019 extension holds check-in, arrivals and baggage claim, and the refurbished original building handles some international departures.
Croatia is in the Schengen area, so passengers on flights from outside it, such as the UK, Serbia, Turkey or the US, go through passport control on arrival. The arrivals hall opens straight onto the forecourt, and the car parks, car rental and bus terminal are across the D409 road, reached by an enclosed footbridge.
Split runs on Central European Time (UTC+1) and switches to UTC+2 for daylight saving time in summer.
Entry requirements and local notes
Schengen entry. Croatia is in the Schengen area. Non-EU travelers are registered in the EU Entry/Exit System (EES), fully operational since 10 April 2026; the planned ETIAS travel authorization is not yet in operation. Check the visa rules for your nationality before you fly.
Ferry connections. Ferries and catamarans to Hvar and Brač leave from Split's city port, next to the main bus station. Give us your sailing time when you book, so your drop-off fits it.
Euro currency. Croatia uses the euro, and ATMs and a currency exchange are in the terminal.
Seasonal flights. Most flights to Split run between spring and autumn, and the arrivals hall is busiest in summer, so keep your phone on when you land.
