Banja Luka Airport reopens

NEWS FLASH


Banja Luka Airport has reopened for commercial traffic after it was shut for urgent runway repairs in February. Air Serbia, Ryanair and Wizz Air have now all restored operations to Bosnia and Herzegovina’s second largest city. Despite its closure, Banja Luka Airport expects to handle a record 300.000 passengers this year. This coming summer season, Ryanair will introduce a new service from Nuremberg to Banja Luka, while Air Cairo will inaugurate flights from Hurghada.

      Not only. BiH has so much potential as a tourist destination similar to the majority of Balkan states offering beautiful nature, history and good food. BiH is still impressive having 5 airports given its size and population.
