December 7 (SeeNews) - Flag carrier Montenegro Airlines serviced record-high 611,938 passengers in the first 11 months of 2018, up 13.81% year-on-year, the flag carrier said.
The company operated 7,295 flights in the January-November period of 2018, it said on Thursday.
In the month of November alone, Montenegro Airlines carried 35,100 passengers, up 15% on the year.
"Despite stepped-up competition, we kept our markets and won a new one, which of course had a favourable effect on the profit, which for the first eleven months of 2018 is higher by 1.5 million euro ($1.7 million) compared to the same period last year," the managing director of Montenegro Airlines, Zivko Banjevic, said in the statement.
Montenegro Airlines expects to handle about 640,000 passengers this year.
