✈Air Serbia is reducing flights to Banja Luka

Banja Luka International Airport (BNX)

Air Serbia is reducing flights from Belgrade to Banja Luka to three times per week from November 01. 2015. All flights are scheduled to operate with 66 seats ATR-72 aircraft. Air Serbia is the only airline flying to Banja Luka after BH Airlines ceased all operations in July of this year. BH Airlines operated four times per week flights to Zurich and seasonal charter flights to Tivat. As a result of BH Airlines ceasing operation, Banja Luka International airport recorded decrease of 18,37% in passengers handled. In the first seven months of the year 13.393 passengers used the airport, while same time last year number of passengers was 14.837. Banja Luka is second largest city in Bosnia and Herzegovina with population of 200.000. The city and whole northwest region of Bosnia could benefit from low cost airlines with flights to places with large concentration of people from this region such as Scandinavia, Germany, Austria and Switzerland. In the past many talks were held with numerous airlines, but due to incompetent airport management such plans never realized.  

Flight schedule from 01/11/2015. to 26/03/2016.
