Air Sweden launches flights to Macedonia's Alexander the Great Airport


09.01.2013
Air Sweden will launch flights from Copenhagen to Skopje Alexander the Great Airport this March. The airline, which suspended all services in 2009, will resume operations in the coming months with Skopje to be one of its first destinations. Air Sweden will hope to capitalise on the success Wizz Air has had on its Skopje - Malmo service. The two cities are only forty minutes apart by car. Wizz Air handled some 2.802 passengers in the first month since launching flights between the two cities. Air Sweden will operate services between the Danish capital and Skopje twice per week using its Airbus A320. Further details can be found here. Tickets are already on sale and available for purchase via the airline’s website.


Skopje Airport closed off 2012 with 67.193 passengers handled in December, an improvement of 5% compared to 2011. As was the case with most airports in the former Yugoslavia in the last month of the year, the number of operated flights slumped by 9%. This is despite the fact that Wizz Air recently launched six new destinations from the Macedonia's capital.


Overall, Austrian was the busiest airline in Skopje in 2012 and is most popular with business travellers, followed by Turkish Airlines and Wizz Air. Jat Airways was the busiest EX-YU airline flying out of the Macedonia's capital followed by Croatia Airlines while Adria came third. Zurich, Istanbul and Vienna are the destination of choice amongst passengers flying out of Skopje. Despite several new airlines launching services to Alexander the Great Airport, its passenger figures rose by approximately 5% in 2012.

1/11/2013 1:18:40 PM
Skopje, 11 January 2013 (MIA) - A total of 906,871 passengers were registered last year at the airports in Macedonia, which is a rise of 8.7% compared with the number of passengers in 2011, the Ministry of Transport and Communication says Friday.

An increase in the number of passengers was reported at Alexander the Great airport in Skopje - 828,831 passengers were transported in 2012, which is a 9.1% rise compared with the number of passengers in 2011. At the same time, a 5% increase in comparison to last year was recorded at St. Paul the Apostle airport in Ohird, which was used by 78,040 passengers.


There has been a boost in the number of passengers using regular lines as a result of introducing new direct destinations. 715,183 passengers were registered using regular lines in 2012, thus being an increase of 13% compared to 2011.


"After completing the project to modernize Macedonia's airport system, a continuous increase has been recorded in the number of passengers, flights and companies with direct flights to new destinations. Moreover, the rise in the number of passengers came as a result of the government-run project for financial support to stimulate and develop air traffic," the ministry says in a press release.

Qatar Airways plans flights to Macedonia's capital


A high ranking delegation from Qatar will visit Macedonia in March, during which the country’s national carrier is set to announce flights between Doha and Skopje. Macedonia's press reports that Qatar Airways CEO, Akbar Al Baker, will be part of the delegation which will be sizing up potential investments in the country. The airline is believed to be planning to launch flights to Skopje at the end of the year. Qatar Airways is hoping to attract transit passengers from the Macedonia's capital which would connect onto its flights to Australia, the Far East and South Africa.


Qatar Airways’ potential arrival into Skopje could shake up Flydubai’s operations to the city. Last October the low cost carrier launched two weekly flights between Dubai and Skopje. The service will increase to three times per week during the 2013 summer season. However, the majority of Flydubai’s passengers on the service connect onto Emirates’ flights to Australia. Qatar could also pose as added competition to Turkish Airlines which also depends on large amounts of transit passengers on its flights from the Macedonia's capital. The airline will operate two daily flights between Istanbul and Skopje this summer.


Qatar Airways launched flights to Zagreb via Budapest earlier in 2012 and inaugurated services to Belgrade via Ankara in November last year. The airline does not hold fifth freedom rights on the Ankara - Belgrade - Ankara sector. On the other hand, it has been granted rights to sell tickets between Zagreb and Budapest. Whether Skopje will become the carrier’s third destination in the former Yugoslavia will be answered in March.
