Planned new look for Berane Airport
Turkey will head the reconstruction project of the rundown Berane Airport, located in North-Eastern Montenegro. The Minister without a portfolio in the Montenegrin Government, Rafet Husović, said that Turkish investors will head the reconstruction of Berane Airport which will commence before long. An official agreement regarding the airport’s overhaul will be inked soon. The investor hasn’t been named although various government ministers have recently hinted that the Turkish airport operator Limak Holding (which runs Priština Airport among others) might be entering the Montenegrin market with Turkish Airlines rumoured to be eyeing a takeover of the struggling national carrier Montenegro Airlines. The goal of the investment is for Berane Airport to be used by commercial airlines for civilian flights.Berane is one of Montenegro’s poorest municipalities and the prospect of an airport could kick start the economy. Berane has both a paved runway and a derelict terminal building which have seen better days. The runway is closed but is often used for motor racing by the locals. In the 1960s and 1970s JAT Yugoslav Airlines operated flights from Belgrade to Berane, then known as Ivangrad. Plans to develop Berane into an international airport were devised several years ago with a visualisation of the future terminal made.

Turkey’s influence over the aviation industry in the EX-YU region is ever growing with investments in Bosnia, Macedonia and Priština and interest in both Serbia’s Jat Airways and control over Montenegro’s airports and national airline.

In Europe you can find many routes in a distance range
of 250-350 km.
ATR-42 and Q400 could be fit for this purpose.
Why not?
How many the population has Luxembourg , and they is the richer the "your" Australia.
Montenegro is a tourist destination and of course it should be invest in the infrastructure, such as working to Croatia (6 airports of which 3 work very very well)!
Croatia has 9 active airports:
Zagreb
Dubrovnik
Split
Zadar
Pula
Rijeka
Osijek
Bol
Mali Losinj
The order is according to the annual number of passangers
fully agree with you, i like your comments, they are heading into the right direction.....
just arrived at kent street in sydney.
have a good sleep.
saludos
BTW - Whats going on with JAT Airways flights involving ATRs today!? Every single flight inbound and outbound is canceled or heavily delayed. Any clues?
Anonymous you are right LUXEMBOURG is smaller but one of the richest EU country and MONTENEGRO IS NOT. I do agree with Sydney that plan is ridiculous. How many airports Belgrade should have then on 2 milion people 9?! Cheers. Alex
737-200 is only operated DOMESTIC routes in Sub-saharian Africa.
The rest of Africa phased out this birds.
It's nice you said, Croatia has 9 active airport, and Montenegro can 3, which do not.
Of course it has the capacity to develop tourism as one of the few countries in Europe where you can be on the beach during the day (for example in hotel Splendid) and dinner and a pleasant nights sleep in Durmitor at 2600 meter.
This will of course be much easier to build a highway from the coast to the north of Montenegro.
Montenegro is a small country, but the Airports of Montenegro had welcomed about 2 000 000 passengers per year, almost as Belgrade (read entire Serbia - because it is the main airport).
The Croatia was twice smaller than Serbia, but twice the richer.
The size of the country is not a prerequisite for a number of airports,highways,hotels... but its position, its potential and natural resources yes.
And Montenegro have it in unlimited amounts.
Our Serbia is now the poorest country in the Balkans except Macedonia (a country with no prospects)
And the GDP per capita and average salary ranking is as follows:
1.Slovenia
2.Croatia
3.Montenegro
4.Bosnia
5.Serbia
6.macedonia
7.Albania
@ last anonymous
I disagree with your post this is the actual ranks

Can you tell me what is your professional position?
You are very good at making analysis Macedonia country with no prospects:-)
I have a vacanancy in my grocery.If you want you can apply for the job.I need a person with such extraordinary ability of making analysis:-)
These are facts.
Macedonia is a country that became independent very soon after Slovenia and Croatia, and look where they are today and where is Macedonia.
Average salary see the above two comments above.
After all that is visible everywhere.
No airline, no strong company, there's no good sports club, very bad tourism but a little Ohrid. Only agriculture is not bad and of course Tikveš red wine is good -:)
I accept another job even though I have a very very good mine job.
POzdrav from Serbia.
