✈Mostar Airport Winter 2020-21

 

Mostar Airport terminal building 

During Winter timetable 2020-21 Mostar Airport will not see any scheduled or charter flights. Last winter season, only airline operating regular flights to/from Mostar was Croatia Airlines with two weekly flights from Zagreb. Croatia Airlines flights were heavily subsidized by the Government of Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Hercegovina-Neretva County.

Due to the Coronavirus pandemic all flights to/from Mostar were suspended in March of this year without any indication of flights being reintroduced again.

In December of last year FlyBosnia introduced one weekly Mostar-Rome flights, but due to pandemic those flights were short lived.

Without any air traffic Mostar Airport is solely depending on the government handouts for its survival. With Bosnia and Herzegovina air traffic down 72% compared to the last year only viable option for Mostar Airport is to be completely closed until March of next year, possible longer if airport’s management is not able to secure any flights.
