There were no more than 20 people in the waiting area, indicating that this would not be a full flight.  The inbound aircraft arrived late, so boarding and departure were delayed.

I attempted to check my bags through to Atlanta, but the baggage agent would not accept my positive space ticket as confirmation.  It was probably for the best, since the bags would not have made the connection in Zürich.

The Dubrovnik airport has undergone a renovation recently.  It is new, with well-lit waiting areas and new facilities.  The airport had to be rebuilt after the war of independence, and this new facility is a result.

Passengers cannot check through to their final destination.  If they are connecting from this domestic flight to an international flight, they most clear immigration in Zagreb, receive a new boarding pass and go through security.  It is very inconvenient and should be changed.

Since there was little time between connections, I did not wander around the airport.  I went straight to my departure gate and waited to board the aircraft.  The airport has recently updated its Duty Free shop, and it appeared to have a good selection.
