Ryanair launched its Girona (GRO)–Sarajevo (SJJ) service on 2nd of April 2025, operating two weekly flights with Boeing 737-800 aircraft. The route marked the first-ever scheduled air connection between Spain and Bosnia and Herzegovina.
During its first year of operation, the service delivered strong results, carrying a total of 28.171 passengers and achieving an average load factor of 84%, underlining solid demand and commercial viability.
Despite Girona being a relatively small city located in close proximity to Barcelona, the route’s strong performance clearly highlights the extent to which the Spain–Bosnia and Herzegovina air travel market remains underserved. The results indicate substantial untapped potential, suggesting that major Spanish cities such as Madrid, Barcelona, and Valencia could comfortably support at least two weekly direct flights to Sarajevo.
