Record breaking June at Bratislava Airport
Bratislava airport processed a record 246,000 travellers in June, an increase of 14 percent year-on-year.
According to general manager Dusan Novota, the airport has managed to process more than 200,000 passengers in June only seven times since its opening in 1951, and this June exceeded all previous records.
The figures can be attributed to numerous regular and charter flights to Antalya in Turkey, Hurghada in Egypt and Larnaca in Cyprus, with the number of such flights increasing by 20 percent year-on-year.
The airport also set a new record in terms of the number of flights, overseeing 3,297 landings and take-offs in June, a yearly increase of 9 percent. This was also the highest figure this year.
In the first half of 2024, the airport processed a total of 733,097 travellers, an increase of 10 percent year-on-year.
