    I wonder if LJU might overtake PRN or SKP next year given that neither one of the two has some major route announcements?

      in the first half SKP has 5-6 new routes which Wizz started in late summer so no chances there. 2nd half is interesting LJU has all the new JP routes if they materilize and SKP has none as of now

    Bosnia will have roughly 1,6 million passengers in 2017 that went through its airports, could this mean that Bosnia could finally surpass Slovenia this year in terms of total passengers in the country?

    Not sure, but Ljubljana could handle 2 million pax in 2018, at least 1.85 million. Can't comment for other cities mentioned here, it is so unpredictable.
