EgyptAir’s subsidiary Air Cairo is expected to launch flights between Hurghada and Banja Luka in Bosnia and Herzegovina beginning the next summer season.
This is after the airline’s representatives met with the Minister for Trade and Tourism of the government of Republika Srpska – one of the two entities of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Suzana Gašić, the General Manager of Banja Luka Airport, Milan Račić, the Egyptian Ambassador to Bosnia and Herzegovina, Yasser Sorour, as well as tour operators from Bosnia and Herzegovina this week.
“The meetings involved discussions over the introduction of regular flights from Banja Luka to Hurghada next year. The talks represent the continuation of the excellent cooperation we have with representatives from Egypt and the Egyptian airline”, tour operator Kon Tiki said in a statement as reported by EX-YU Aviation.
It added, “In the coming period, we expect for all procedures to be finalised, after which we will officially present Hurghada as a new destination in our offer with departures from Banja Luka”.
