Statistics

In 2006, 38,258 passengers used the airport, which was visited by 545 passenger planes and 475 cargo planes.[4] Due to the low passenger capacity of the hinterland, the airport could not be continuously operated at a profit. Low cost airlines flew the airport on scheduled flights in the past for a couple of months only.
