Sarajevo Airport handled 177.186 passengers in April, representing a decrease of 4.7% on the same month in 2025, ending over two consecutive years of passenger growth. The figure is in line with an expected decline in overall scheduled seat capacity reported recently, which will continue into May. Numerous carriers reduced capacity in April when compared to last year, with Eurowings having the biggest decline, followed by Pegasus Airlines, Jazeera Airways, Flydubai, Croatia Airlines, SAS Scandinavian Airlines and Flynas. During the January - April period, Sarajevo Airport welcomed 545.370 travellers through its doors, representing an increase 4.9% or an additional 25.657 passengers.

      It is capacity - number of offered seats, not passenger numbers.

      Extra JU flights would of been nice to ease up the fall in pax numbers. The drop is small enough for JU to have had a dramatic effect in reducing that drop.

      Sarajevu je bitnije da ljudi imaju gdje otići na odmor, nego dijaspora, kao i da turisti mogu doći u Sarajevo. To je daleko zdraviji model od Tuzle.

    1. Anonymous20:12

      Once again ,I said that never will happend. SJJ did not overtake not even come close to SKP, even when SKP was stagnating. The difference between both airports on a year basis is more than 1 million pax, thats says all
      But this negative effect SJJ is facing now it is also from TZL growth especially W6 routes , and by the time TZL will really come close to SJJ

      The sole reason SJJ is facing this are the Gulf closures and resumption delays, not Tuzla. The LF is actually higher for Q1 2026 in Sarajevo. Let's all wait until Ryanair introduces a new batch of flights in the fall, discussions are almost wrapped up with BHDCA and Canton.

      Anonymous 20:12 , The difference between Skopje and Sarajevo is more than 1 million and Sarajevo will never catch up. The difference between Tuzla and Sarajevo is over 1.5 million and Tuzla will catch up with Sarajevo. Your logic is great, kudos. How did you come to that conclusion?

      SJJ grew 5% this year January-April, which equates to about 100k passengers if the pattern is applied to the entire year, Tuzla might grow by 250-300k. However Sarajevo will have multiple additional lines in June and July which might launch it to 2.4-2.5M at the end of the year.

      If additional Ryanair flights are indeed introduced Sarajevo will easily hit 3M next year, Can Tuzla get enough new routes for a 500k jump? Can they get any? Highly doubtful given that the LF is 65-75% on most lines so far.

      @Anonymous 23:27 , Sarajevo has seen growth for 28 months in a row, last year they had 2.2 million passengers. In that period of growth, almost a million additional passengers. How is that not growth? Could you please explain that to me? 28 consecutive months of growth, one month of decline and that means that it is not growing at all? Even though this year, with this decline, there is a growth of 5%? I am asking for an explanation. Write only the facts.
