Passenger flow was up by 13% at Mestia Airport on 1Q2021 compared to 2019. Ambrolauri Airport served 43% more passengers in the first quarter of 2021 compared to 2019, while Natakhtari Airport served 17% more passengers than in the first three months of 2019.
Ak-Air Georgia, a company that operates domestic flights in the country under an agreement with the state declares that demand is significantly increased for domestic flights.
Irina Mghebrishvili, the company's administrative manager, says that the number of domestic flights can no longer meet the demand, so discussions about increasing the frequency of flights with the unification of airports are already underway.
"Slowly the segment of foreigners is taking the dominant place in domestic flights. Demand is quite high, so more frequencies will be implemented per week. Probably at least in the next week the schedules will be updated and more flights will be added," said Irina Mghebrishvili, administrative manager of Ak-Air Georgia.
