Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport was the only one from the former Yugoslavia to rank within the top 100 busiest on the continent last year based on Airports Council International’s (ACI) annual report. With 8.367.931 passengers handled, it was the 75th busiest in Europe. The airport was ahead of the likes of Reykjavik, Glasgow, Sofia, Thessaloniki and Riga but behind Palermo, Basel and Lanzarote. During the second half of 2024, it ranked 72nd on the continent with 4.649.487 travellers handled. Over the last year, Belgrade Airport added 421.217 travellers on 2023 and welcomed over eight million passengers through its doors for the first time.

European rank for former Yugoslav airports in 2024


Zagreb Airport ranked 108th on the continent during 2024 ahead of Leeds, Menorca and Chisinau but behind the likes of Tbilisi, Turin and Wroclaw. Pristina ranked 114th in Europe, followed by Split, which was 123rd, then Dubrovnik in 135th position, Skopje ranking in at 136, and Sarajevo 150th, with the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina making its debut in the top 150. On the other hand, Podgorica dropped out of the top 150, landing in 155th place, while Zadar came 160th. Ljubljana remained the lowest-ranked capital city airport in Europe, placing 164th among more than 300 airports. Full passenger results for the former Yugoslavia’s commercial airports can be found here.

European rank for select airports in the region in 2024


During 2024, London Heathrow Airport was the busiest in Europe for a second year in a row, handling 83.884.800 passengers, with Istanbul’s main gateway coming in second. They were followed Paris Charles de Gaulle, Amsterdam, Madrid, Frankfurt, Barcelona, Rome Fiumicino, London Gatwick and Munich. Out of the top ten, only five reached and surpassed their pre-pandemic 2019 figures - London Heathrow, Istanbul, Madrid, Barcelona and Rome Fiumicino. Overall, in 2024, five billion passengers were welcomed by Europe’s airports, an increase of 7.4% over 2023, and up 1.8% on 2019. However, 47% of Europe’s airports are still below their pre-pandemic volumes, with structural aviation market changes and geopolitics resulting in significant performance gaps across national and individual airport markets. Europe’s smaller airports are still 34.5% below pre-pandemic levels.

      Yes, but you still need to fill those planes with people, and its not only LCC, BA, Air France, soon Iberia are flying there. Also Aegean is often sending A321, plus there are like 4-5 flights per day on average to London and many other interesting destinations, not only to the west but to eastern and central Europe as well. Overall, I think their developing nicely, I'm sure the Adriatic sea and all the new resorts and investments there play a role.

      ...and yet BEG does nothing. Regardless of the numbers, the airport is still underperforming. Belgrade is nowhere on the map of tourist radars, even JU's transfer model isn't employed to a full extent, almost non-existant cargo traffic. TK sees 60% or transfer traffic, in the case of EK i think it's closer to 90%. How much Air Serbia has? Why is there no cargo division of Air Serbia with proper metal and/or real incentive to attract cargo airlines?

      There are systemic mistakes in the work of BEG airport and NOTHING is done to address them. Well, we can only applaud f****** BUD and now even Tirana.

Belgrade had record tourist year in 2024. You are also wrong on cargo, BEG is not HKG but cargo is growing. Air Serbia alone grew cargo 25% in 2024. Other airports in exyu wish they could have cargo and passenger numbers like BEG.

      I'm not saying everything is bad. It's 50/50. The thing that most people don't realize is that BUD is BEG's number 1 competitor.

      Many years ago i spoke to a guy at Hungarocontrol, back in the time of Malev. He told me the entire BUD's managment has their eyes set on Vienna, since at that time they were handling 3 times the number of pax. So they were doing everything to close the gap. That's the mindset they're lacking at BEG and with Vinci's takeover of BUD that's not gonna change.

      Still can't believe there was no clause in the concession agreement preventing them taking over airports in neibhouring countries.

      "Francois Berisot, CEO of Budapest Airport, kicked off the conference with an opening address that underscored the airport’s commitment to enhancing its air cargo role, emphasising Budapest’s unique position, and the hub’s tripled cargo volumes over the past decade.

      “We are proud to say that Budapest Airport is not just a local success story but a regional powerhouse in air cargo. Our aim is to make Budapest one of the most important air cargo hubs in Central and Eastern Europe,” Berisot asserted."

      Makes you wonder what was the same guy doing in Belgrade.

      Probably did what was planned and announced. Everyone knows making Belgrade airport into one of the most important air cargo hubs in Central and Eastern Europe was not one of those things.

      The question is WHY it's in no one's interest to develop cargo at BEG with its strategical position and a strong transfer airline which could make many cargo routes even more viable than from BUD.

      BEG relative success in the passengers field is completely overshadowed by the abysmal failure in the cargo sector.

      As if they're blind on unwilling to cause competition to BUD.

    I was certain Istanbul would be number 1 in 2024 but seems Heathrow managed to pull through. Do you guys think IST will eventually overtake LHR?

      There will be growth but as usual it will be uneven. Like in the past few years routes dependent on business travel will lag behind while routes on leisure destinations, particularly to the Mediterranean countries will experience significant growth.

      A national airline in our region would quickly become a place where primarily well connected people are hired, in much larger numbers than actually needed.
      It will be loss making, maybe forever and it will be very slow to adjust to market dynamics.
      There will be more and more calls to be protected from competition.

      I don't think so. It will probably be a small decline. On top of capacity decline the year started off with lots of fog. And some Wizz flights were also diverted and passengers bussed because of that refuelling thing.
