Destinations to Lviv and Gdansk remained the most popular throughout 2016. The airport was also receiving big amount of passengers of private jets. By the end of December, the amount of passengers was 9713, 1226 % more than in 2015. It confirmed the fact Radom‘s airport is not anymore the smallest airport of Poland.
New investments and expansion are planned in the nearest future. Israel‘s IHLS is interested in purchasing Radom Airport’s shares. The airport expansion will cost about 100 million Polish zloty ($23 million).
