Flights are scheduled to start on April 1, operating twice weekly on Tuesdays and Saturdays. This is Ryanair’s seventh destination from Sarajevo, the airline plans to increase its presence at Sarajevo Airport by introducing 3 additional routes, for a total of ten. This will position Ryanair as the number one airline in Sarajevo by the number of flights and seats offered. Three new destination will be announced in the coming weeks. Ryanair is facing direct competition on Stockholm Arlanda-Sarajevo route by Norwegian Air, operating flights two times per week on the same days as Ryanair.

Since Norwegian Air is operating flights on the same days as Ryanair, here is the schedule for Norwegian Air. Having two airlines competing on the same route will benefit customers with great prices and most likely introduction of more frequencies, predominantly by Ryanair, since the airline is known for price dumping until they win customers over.

✈Nine markets where LCC's account for over 50% of seats!

anna.aero has forecast that the LCC market will account for 50% of seats by 2027, this is a target which has already been reached in nine European country markets. The leading nation for low-cost market share in Europe is Macedonia, with LCCs accounting for just under 66% of the market in 2018. What is interesting to note however is that although Macedonia is Europe’s leading low-cost market when it comes to market share, the continent’s leading LCC, Ryanair, is not present in the market. Along with Macedonia, Gibraltar and Iceland (highlighted in light green) are also in the top 20, but are yet to see the Irish LCC’s tailfin grace its airports’ aprons. Bosnia and Herzegovina is taking sixth place in Europe in terms of LCC market share, with 56,2% seats offered by low cost airlines. Next month will mark arrival of Europe's LCC giant Ryanair on Bosnian market. Ryanair will introduce flights from Brussels Charleroi, Memmingen and Stockholm Skavsta to Banja Luka. All three destination will be served twice weekly. With arrival of Ryanair, LCC market share in Bosnia and Herzegovina will go over 60%, placing the country right after Macedonia.

Following LCC operate to/from airports in Bosnia and Herzegovina:

• Sarajevo : Air Arabia, Eurowings, Flydubai, Norwegian, Pegasus and Wizz air
• Tuzla : Wizz air (base)
• Mostar : Eurowings
