Mostar Airport strategic development model

Since 2010, the Mostar Airport has had significant traffic results after 10 year long post-war traffic stagnation. In recent years a number of passengers doubled, while the traffic numbers at the end of 2012 reached the figures before the war. In order to be able to meet traffic demand and actively face the challenges that lie ahead, and to train professionals properly, the Mostar Airport should develop specific planning documents that should serve as guidelines for future coordinated, planned and sustainable development. This development should be planned in regard to customers, passengers and airline satisfaction. This paper presents the research for the Mostar Airport, for which mid-term traffic forecast and strategic development model was developed. Strategic development model could be applied on all airports in Bosnia and Herzegovina (under the conditions that all airports have previously created master plan), with some adjustments.
