Ryanair will not fly from Tuzla, ticket sales have been abolished

The Tuzla Canton government refused this week to sign a contract with Ryanair by which this low-cost airline would start flights to BiH’s second busiest airport from next month.

The airline has previously started selling tickets for flights from Weeze and Baden Baden to Tuzla. Also, it was planned that the company, after the planned signing of the contract, would discover series of new destinations, among which were initially London Stansted and Memmingen, and later Stockholm and Malta.

However, it took two months for the cantonal government to inform Ryanair that it would not sign an agreement similar to the one the airline had made with local authorities in Banja Luka from which it is currently flying.
