Tuzla Airport sees sharp passenger decline
NEWS FLASH
Tuzla Airport registered its fourth consecutive month of declining passenger figures. The airport welcomed 36.341 travellers in January, representing a decrease of 10.4%. The dip in numbers comes as a result of Wizz Air which has discontinued flights from Bosnia and Herzegovina's third largest city to Billund, Baden Baden, Stockholm Skavsta and Vaxjo over the winter season. Tuzla Airport has commenced talks with the low cost carrier over a new four-year agreement, which would see the airline serve the city until at least 2023. Airport authorities anticipate the talks will result in the introduction of new routes and possibly the stationing of a third aircraft. Wizz Air's CEO, Jozsef Varadi, told EX-YU Aviation News he is confident a new agreement would be reached. "I think it is in the interest of Tuzla and the region to see our continuous operations and them improving their infrastructure. I'm pretty sure Tuzla Airport will be business-minded in that regard", Mr Varadi said.
