Chopin losing ground

In Q1 2006, air passengers totaled 2.7 million, 34% more than in the same period in 2005, and 83% more than in Q1 2004. Warsaw's Chopin remains market leader but is losing ground. In Q1 2005, Chopin was used by 68% of all passengers traveling through Poland and in Q1 this year the figure dropped to 56%. Regional airports are becoming increasingly important due to the dynamic development of budget airlines.
