Modlin Airport starts bringing in profits

The airport in Modlin near Warsaw will service 2.6 million passengers, 100,000 more than it had planned, and for the first time, it will record a significant EBITDA this year, Polish daily Puls Biznesu informed.

Although traffic is generated solely by low-cost carrier Ryanair, Marcin Danił, the deputy CEO of the airport, said that the situation may change in the future. As a result of a railway siding, which will shorten the travelling time from Warsaw to Modlin, is planned to begin construction within a few years, more airlines may want to fly from the airport. Additionally, a business lounge is under construction, a requirement put forward by FlyDubai.

The airport also wants to entice tour operators to run charter flights from Modlin.
