✈Bosnian airports: Flight diversions due to low visibility
Due to low visibility at Banja Luka and Sarajevo Airports, flights were diverted to Tuzla. Two Ryanair flights were diverted from Banja Luka to Tuzla, one from Milan-Bergamo and the other from Stockholm-Arlanda. Also, two flights from Sarajevo were diverted to Tuzla, Pegasus Airlines flight from Istanbul-Sabiha and the other Wizz Air from Abu Dhabi. With diverted flights Tuzla Airport handled 11 arriving flights, seven regular scheduled departing flights and one unscheduled diverted flight to Istanbul. Passengers for Istanbul flight were transported by bus from Sarajevo to Tuzla to get on Istanbul flight, while passengers for Abu Dhabi flight were transported to Sarajevo also by bus. Wizz Air returning flight to Abu Dhabi is scheduled to leave Tuzla to Sarajevo tomorrow morning, and then continue to Abu Dhabi. During winter months low visibility with fog is causing major flight disruptions on all airports in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Until this year the majority of flights that couldn’t land at Banja Luka airport were diverted to Zagreb, while Tuzla flights were diverted to Belgrade, Sarajevo flights most of the time were sent back to its original starting airport. As of last month, flight diversions are coordinated between airports in Bosnia and Herzegovina, avoiding major inconvenience for passengers with border crossings when flights were diverted to neighboring countries.
