Wizz air Airbus 320 at Tuzla International Airport
During month of February
number of passengers using airports in Bosnia and Herzegovina has increased
from 53.303 to 63.405 (+18,95% or 10.102 passengers increase). Tuzla
International Airport recorded largest increase in passengers
handled +65,40% or 7.884 passengers increase. Sarajevo International
Airport recorded increase of 6,66% or 2.659 passengers increase, comparing to
same month last year. Banja Luka and Mostar airport recorded decrees in all
areas (flights, passengers and cargo). The only source of income for Banja Luka
airport during 2015 were cargo flights to Turkey. Scheduled Air Serbia flights
are subsidized by local government (Air Serbia does not pay landing and
handling fees to the airport). Unfortunately for Banja Luka airport MNG
Airlines cargo flights to Istanbul have stopped. Most likely flights will
reopen in the near future but from Tuzla International Airport instead. It’s not clear
yet if flights will be operated by MNG Airlines or Turkish Airlines.
