      They'll get close to 2M this year if everything goes well, hopefully the management is aware that the current expansion won't be enough from 2025/26

      CTN is connected with two daily flights and as a part of STAR alliance much more convenient for transfer flights. On top of that there is a steady, if not huge, flow of ordinary passengers between those two cities.
      On the other BEG pays insignificant role for SJJ transfer passengers with DLH, AUA, SWR, CTN daily flights, plus all economic, cultural, political links between Belgrade and Sarajevo were completely destroyed 92-95 and they never recovered.
      And to add to it, if you look at BEG-BNX-BEG flights, both the number of the flights and the passengers, it can be concluded that BiH is market is almost irrelevant to ASL as an airline. [S.K.]

    1. No, it is not. The image is from Tokyo and has been taken from a JAT publication about the opening of the Tokyo office. JAT had offices across the world, including cities it did not fly to. Furthermore, Japanese uses the same Chinese characters.
