Mostar Airport continues to shed passengers
NEWS FLASH
Mostar Airport has seen its passenger numbers decline for a twentieth consecutive month this October by handling 1.654 travellers, representing a decrease of 60% on last year. During the January - October period, Mostar welcomed 27.412 passengers through its doors, down 35.2% year-on-year. The airport has been hit by the loss of its busiest customer Mistral Air, which used to operate a number of scheduled charter flights from Italy to Mostar, carrying Christian pilgrims visiting the Medjugorje sight. The airport believes a solution to its problems could be a concession. "Mostar Airport requires significant funds and investment. The Federal Ministry for Transport and Communication has allocated some resources which will be of use. However, we have to work harder on marketing and offer services at dumping prices. But if we provide dumping prices, the question is how will we make a living", General Manager, Marin Raspudić, said recently.
