NEWS FLASH
The Macedonian Minister for Transport and Communications, Aleksandar Nikoloski, has held talks with the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Prague Airport, Jiri Pos. During the meeting, Mr Nikoloski outlined the existing state subsidies on offer to airlines for the launch of new routes. The two sides discussed the potential introduction of flights between Skopje and Prague, as well as the launch of seasonal services between Ohrid and Karlovy Vary in western Czech Republic. The talks come a month after the General Manager of airport operator TAV Macedonia, Nejat Kurt, travelled to Czech capital to partake in a workshop at Prague Airport on the tourist potential of Macedonia, which was also attended by Mr Pos, and hold talks with the country's aviation stakeholders.
Ohrid Karlovy Vary is definitely an odd pair
ReplyDeleteBizarre
DeleteWhy ? Whats wrong , exactly good option , both touristic places to be connected ,why not to try ? Something new and different is always nice and deserve a chance.
DeleteNikolovski je najveci lazov sto postoji. Najavio je obnovu linije Ohrid - Basel. Gde mu je?
ReplyDeletePa i Dubai - Skopje nema... Koliko je nesposeben.
Delete19:03 Flydubai is postponing the launch of a direct service from North Macedonia's Skopje to Dubai, local media reported on Friday.The air carrier notified North Macedonia's transport ministry that it will delay the launch of flights to Skopje due to "objective reasons beyond the airline's control", news provider Sakam Da Kazham reported, citing a statement from the transport ministry.
DeleteThe ministry did not specify when the airline will start operating the new service.

Nikolovski najavi i Wizz air se prijavi na tender , no sepak krajna odluka koga bi pocnale letovite za odredena ruta nosi samata aviokompanija , vo slucajot W6 ...

DeleteНе е W6 туку 5W, ама како и да е, целата групација откажа толку многу летови во последно време така што ништо што излегува од нивниот PR тим не треба да се сфаќа сериозно. Гледаат да ги оптимизираат рутите што веќе ги имаат, и да зголемуваат фреквенции наместо да отвараат нови рути. Иако 5W најави линија кон Бејрут и ???Кабала???, Скопје не им е воопшто на радарот.
Why not Prague - Ohrid seasonally? Strange... Maybe WizzAir related?
ReplyDeleteThere is no alot of demand and Czech tourists in Ohrid probably thats why they want to add something new and different... good to giwe a try Ohrid-Karlovi vary :))
Deletelol @19.21 ne si ozbilen
DeleteHejteri,ništo ne vi odgovara,da ima zošto ima,da nema zošto nema,čuden narod balkanski
ReplyDeleteBas taka , ubavo kazano , toa e tipicen balkanski mentalitet da se pluka po se sto se pravi , a ako ne se pravi zosto ne se pravi .... se sto e novo e ubavo i dobro i vredi da dobie sansa!
DeleteOhrid - Karlovy vari e najgolemata glupost sto ja imam slusnato. Mora da ja izmislil istiot sto na vremeto pregovarase za ruta Ohrid-Craiova. same logic - same sh*t

ReplyDeleteWow, GM of airport operator attended a travel/tourism industry workshop to promote THE COUNTRY where they operate.
We asked The region’s best airport operator GM if she has ever done anything similar.
“We find the question malicious and in bad faith, so we will not comment on whether our GM has ever promoted Slovenia or worked to improve air connectivity.
We’d just like to highlight that our GM regularly follows all relevant platforms for charter hub operators. Also, let’s not forget—airport operators only provide infrastructure, its air operators’ DECISION if they launch flights to LJU or how much they fly to LJU.
Fraport added that they are proudly developing a charter hub.”
#sarcasm ;)
Good sarcasm but it is really nice to see GM going outside the country and promoting it ... we cannot see that alot :) this is good routes , new and I tbink it worth trying get them.
DeleteI am happy when seeing good and positive news for SKP airport with new routes and airlines. It is also nice to notice how GM of the airport Mr Nejat is traveling outside our country to promote it and the airport. Never seen before👏Best luck and I expect to get the both routes for SKP and OHD !!!
ReplyDeleteSkopje needs to think about direct route to Tel-Aviv
ReplyDeleteIs W6 allowed to fly such a route?
DeleteNo
DeleteNo need tel aviv
DeleteTel Aviv would be a great addition, especially for incoming tourism as Israelis know and like this area. It would also be nice to have a direct option for our tour operators going to TLV, Jerusalem, the Dead Sea and the holy sites instead of having to travel to Sofia (where most Macedonians fly to Israel from). Just check Sofia airport where you have El Al, Bulgaria Air, Israir, Arkia, Ryanair and Wizzair all flying to Tel Aviv.
DeleteOhrid used to have some charters from Tel Aviv and I remember times when Tel Aviv had tons of posters advertising Macedonia paid by their tour operator/airline Israir. I flew Tel Aviv - Ohrid and remember it was full. Recently, every time I fly SOF-TLV there are Macedonians onboard. :)
actually Wizz and Ryanair are the two airlines they talked with (or are stil talking), confirmed by Kurt.
ReplyDeleteSKP and SJJ desperately need Prague in their destination list, the demand is huge, LCCs have been considering it.
