United Kingdom is one of the largest airline markets in Europe but until this year flights to Bosnia and Herzegovina were very minimal. With the arrival of Ryanair in Sarajevo this is finally changing. With Ryanair and Wizzair as LCC there is a market for third airline like easyJet and in near future Biritish Airways that would open great number of connections via its hub at London Heathrow Airport.
