AD PLACEMENT — CONTEXTUAL
Pula has no true hub airline, so most 'connections' are actually separate self-transfer tickets requiring you to collect bags and re-check in.
The terminal is tiny, so even with a short layover you'll have plenty of time to walk between gates.
Flights are highly seasonal, concentrated in summer, so off-season connections may involve long waits due to sparse schedules.
If your itinerary spans Schengen and non-Schengen flights, budget extra time for passport control since facilities are basic and can queue up during peak charter arrivals.
There are limited food and lounge options, so plan meals before arriving if you have a long layover.

High risk
Tight connections are safer outside peak hours. Morning rush (6–9a), midday (11a–2p), and evening (4–8p) are highest risk.
The entire airport is a single small terminal building, so passengers walk from arrivals to departures in just a few minutes. There is no shuttle or train system since the whole facility can be crossed on foot in under five minutes; Schengen/non-Schengen passport control is the main variable affecting flow.
