Significant public funding has been made available to support Mostar's air connectivity. The Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina allocated approximately 1.56 million euros to Mostar Airport this year specifically for subsidising existing services and launching new routes. The government of the Herzegovina-Neretva Canton separately approved a further 256.000 euros for the airport, bringing the two allocations to approximately 1.82 million.
The exceptionally short application period contrasts with previous route incentive calls at Mostar, which have generally provided airlines with a longer window in which to prepare and submit their proposals.

Pre-arranged for a single airline. If they are lucky it's Skyalps, if they aren't it's going to be another edition of Lumniwings
ReplyDeletesorry but presmesno
ReplyDeleteMaybe a continuation of existing routes for Croatia and Air Serbia
ReplyDeleteI was thinking that as well
DeleteThat would be the most sensible way forward.
DeleteEverything just seems so murky in this part of the world when it come to aviation
ReplyDeleteOnly 1 week deadline says a lot
Delete40 years of communism 40 years of freedom nothings changed
DeleteI mean it seems like a good idea to me, an outsider. But the short deadlines really smell fishy. Why not go into direct contact with airlines, such as ZAG, TRS, TGD did?
DeleteWith those rubbish airlines, they make their living with local councils subsidising like 30 EUR per passenger.
DeleteThen they add 5 EUR to take them to little known sh11tholes of remote little known European airports, where they get another subsididy.
With those subsidies, would an idiot going from Mostar for 30 EUR to, say , Lutton, England? To get into London may cost the idiot another 100 EUR.
I smell corruption
ReplyDeleteIt's a right stench isn't it.
