The director of Mostar Airport, Marko Djuzel, is working intensively to restore Eurowings flights to Dusseldorf and Stuttgart.
Djuzel says that Eurowings flights to Cologne were supposed to start in 2020, but they haven’t announced it yet, and that, unfortunately, it didn’t happen due to Covid-19, so the airport will work to ensure that after the flights for Dusseldorf and Stuttgart, and also for flights to Cologne, are restored.
Djuzel says that before Covid-19, Eurowings had up to 98 percent occupancy on this route. Most of the passengers on this line, 80 percent of them, were diaspora.
Mostar Airport is also negotiating with a number of other companies, as well as with three LCCs (low-cost carriers). Mostar will be based on lines to Italy, Ireland, and Poland related to religious tourism to Medjugorje, but they believe that Scandinavia is also very interesting because of the diaspora, and they are definitely working on launching flights to Istanbul.
The airport is working intensively to make an agreement with domestic tourist agencies in Mostar and Herzegovina that they sell tourist arrangements on flights to Italy, Ireland and Poland, so that the current lines would not only bring religious tourists to Medjugorje, but also take BiH tourists to those destinations, Biznis Info reports.
