Brno Airport on the rise

Air travel in Brno is taking off. 2024 saw a record number of passengers, exotic locations and another long-haul route. The number of passengers passing through the airport was 9% up on the previous year, with London, Antalya and Egypt among the most popular destinations. March 2025 brought the launch of two new scheduled routes to Rome and Malaga. And millions of Czech crowns continue to be spent on modernisation.
