NEW AIR ROUTE FROM MAHOVLJANI TO LAUNCH THIS SPRING

Starting in the spring of 2026, passengers will be able to travel directly from Banja Luka Airport in Mahovljani to Stuttgart, thanks to a new air route operated by Wizz Air.

The information was confirmed to Glas Srpske by representatives of Airports of Republika Srpska, who stated that the route is scheduled to operate from April 16 to May 19.

Airport management plans to negotiate in the coming period to ensure the route remains active beyond this initial timeframe. Currently, Wizz Air already operates flights from Mahovljani to Stockholm, Dortmund, and Basel, while Ryanair connects Banja Luka Airport with Gothenburg, Memmingen, Karlsruhe, and Vienna.

Airports of Republika Srpska announced ambitious plans for passenger traffic growth this year, with a total of 4,830 flights and 497,632 passengers expected. This represents an increase of 3.63 percent compared to the number of passengers transported in 2025.

During the main tourist season, from May to September, charter flights to Turkey, Egypt, and Greece are planned, along with the introduction of one new charter route, according to the annual plan of Airports of Republika Srpska.
