Juli SKP&OHD 273.623 +19%
ReplyDeleteIt's always easier 2 vs 1.
DeleteStill PRN will change a lot after W6 expansion in winter.
The ranking in the charts will climb ;) ;) ;) ;)
After visa liberalization expected in January, where SKP&OHD will be. If W6 increase flights from Pristina, than SKP is back to 1 million. While Pristina easy can reach 3 million+ mark...
Deleteaha ok
DeleteOh wow...I forgot about the visa liberalisation!!! Oh yes, then my friend, traffic will increase a lot. I am confident that Wizz Air (W6) will base at least 2 Airbuses in PRN.
DeleteWhy is PRN-LTN doing extremely well?
Of course you will publish combined figures for both SKP and OHD because SKP alone had lower numbers for July compared to PRN. Nice try though... :)
Deleteand you have visited this blog for the first time obviousl
DeleteAdmin: the growth number in the table should be fixed to 9.3% according the text
ReplyDelete9.3% is under expected
ReplyDeleteA proud moment to be Kosovar. Thank you and excellent job PRN!
ReplyDeleteYou just nailed it.
It's ok, not much reason otherwise.
Deleteactually if you check the prices from PRN and SKP to the destinations that wizz are opening out of PRN you will see that tickets from SKP are cheaper so many people may still be using SKP istead Wizz at PRN
ReplyDeletePrice to/from SKP will change increase possibly since Macedonia annuals LCC tender.
DeleteEvery route served by Wizz Air from SKP at the moment is not subsidizied, and they are going to keep them ... LCC tender is only for new routes, so prices will not change at all, especially on destinations on which Wizz is using 321 from SKP. If you look better you can find round ticket from skp for around 80 eur in the end of september.
DeleteSo Wizz is dumping prices in SKP.
DeleteIf they abolish the visas, PRN will no doubt reach 4 million by 2025 before it become a full member of the EU and NATO.
ReplyDeleteanother nostradamus
Deleteinteresting. when you compare SKP&PRN July results from last year: SKP gained 20thousands more then PRN. Its stil ahead of PRN (which has never been the case after July)
