Skopje Airport returns to growth

NEWS FLASH


Skopje Airport ended five consecutive months of declining passenger numbers this September when it welcomed 283.939 travellers. The figure represents an increase of 2.1% on the same month last year. The growth was anticipated due to a temporary increase in flights in September and October by the airport’s largest airline Wizz Air, which has also been the main protagonist for the declining figures over the past few months. During the first three quarters of the year, Skopje Airport welcomed 2.284.933 travellers through its doors, up 4.7%. Growth is expected to be maintained in October as the decline in capacity stood at just 0.4%.

    Strange that a newcomer like AJet surpassed ASL in SKP.

      They just had more scheduled capacity. One B738 is almost like three ATR72-600 and they send A321 on certain days, thats why.

      While W6 fleet is grounded and when we dont see their strong start back in SKP there will be no any big numbers , we can expect the numbers when W6 return in half or full capacity!
