SJJ mercilessly humiliating W6
ReplyDeleteW6 had closed it base by November last year. That's why the increase in numbers is so high.
DeleteIsnt this such a low numbers for a main airport in the country? Also the difference between August and November is huge.
ReplyDeleteIt is an astonishingly low number for a capital city in Europe, especially in a country with such a large diaspora and with poor road and rail links to just about anywhere.
DeleteYoure forgetting that Tuzla and Banja Luka are also functioning, in such a small country, on such small distances.
DeleteWhy are balkan people always so negative
DeleteWe are negative yes but this time its the reallity not negativity.
DeleteSuper Sarajevo! Ovi koji, kada je Sarajevo u pitanju, uvijek traze nesto negativno, neka se brinu za svoje probleme. :-)
DeleteIts the reallity, 80k pax is bad considering the high number of pax during the summer months. Skopje also had 290k in August but will have 215k in November, which is normal difference, but at SJJ the difference is almost 200%. So instead of commenting that we should focus on our problems, go deeper in the aviation and i am sure many things will be clear to you.
DeleteU tom periodu, sa kojim novembar usporedjujete, , turisti cine veci dio putnika. Osim toga, bosanska diaspora dolazi uglavnom ljeti. To je takodje razlika u odnosu na Skoplje, koje prakticno zivi od albanske diaspore. Oni dolaze u domovinu u toku cijele godine.
DeleteDa be da, shto kje pravevme da ne bea albancite ne znam stvarno.
DeleteI don't know what is your problem? If Split had 678,436 passengers in August, and 41,031 in November, what is the problem that Sarajevo had 200% fewer passengers?
DeleteYou are comparing a secondary city relying solely on tourism with a capital city of a European country. If you see no issue in that ok.
Delete@10:03 Are you for real? SPU relies on tourist during the summer, SJJ is a capital city. I havent seen such low numbers in 2023, its still good and new record for them but i think its too little. Thats my opnion, not problem.
DeleteThey are right. But low numbers for all capital cities in the Ex Yu region. It is not just low for SJJ. Zagreb has 3 million, Podgorica 1.5, and Skopje around 2 million. Even Belgrade is low with 6 million for a capital with 3 million inhabitants.
DeleteSkopje will handle almost 3 million this year
DeleteCongratulations to Sarajevo for recovering despite Wizz doing some vile shit.
ReplyDeleteAlso, damn those Pegasus numbers are huge
Yeah, they mostly fly A321neo and A320neo both with hight-density configurations (239 and 186) while TK mostly flies with A320ceo and B738 with more premium layout, sometimes they use A321(neo). AnadoluJet (AJet) flies mostly with B738 and sometimes uses the Boeing 737 MAX 8 or A321neo.
DeleteWho is generating growth considering they lost many WIZZ routes?
ReplyDeleteWizz did not fly last November.
DeleteSurprised that OU has more available seats than JU
ReplyDeleteWhy? OU has 2 daily flights, JU has 1.
DeleteYes, but one Ju 319 has the same capacity as two Q400
DeleteYet the difference is huge
Yes, but JU flies the ATR to SJJ
DeleteJU flies to Sarajevo with ATR72s, not A319s.
DeleteIn the last 8 days they operated the route with the a319 4 times
DeleteBuddy this article is about November. Out of 28 flights JU operated to SJJ in November, 23 were operated by the ATR. So not sure what point are you trying to make
DeleteMaybe JU uses A319 sometimes because there is no ATR available.
DeleteThey have said that they used A319s a few times because of the winds at SJJ. There was an article about this, using the A319 doesnt neccecarly mean that the LF was 100%, half A319 is one ATR.
DeleteIt is quite interesting that Pegasus Airlines has more passengers than Turkish Airlines!!!! SAW good option is it for transfers to European destinations? It seems a lot of people use PC for flights to Europe alongside TK.
ReplyDeleteThe table with the airlines is not passenger numbers but available capacity, meaning how many tickets each airline had on sale on the route for that month.
DeleteO ok! Thank you
