Aug 09, 2018 (newstodate): bmi Regional launched flights on the route between Frankfurt and Jonkoping, in Sweden, in 2015. This has proved a success..
Today, frequency on the route has grown from two weekly at the start to 12 weekly flights in summer 2018, and passenger volumes in H1, 2018, have increased by 7.5 percent, y-o-y.
Jonkoping Airport also saw BRA opening flights on its new route from Jonkoping to Stockholm Bromma Airport from end of May 2018 with two daily flights, expected to increase from this autumn, and filling the void after the demise on May 16, 2018 of the earlier operator on the route, NextJet.
On the cargo side, the situation is less clear after Post Sweden ended the airport's role as a mini-hub since May 2007 when it started transferring mail volumes between Northern and Southern Sweden through Jonkoping, increasing the airport's mail volumes by 400 percent on 22 weekly postal flights.
Today, the airport's cargo business primarily consists of shipments by TNT, time:matters and DAN'X.
Turn-over from cargo used to constitute about one-third of the airport's totals, but cargo operations are today serving only few customers during a brief period of the night leaving the airport with a full-scale security-certified cargo terminal with much excess capacity to be utilized.
The airport's former Marketing Manager till the end of 2017, Herman Larsson is now engaged to support the airport's new Marketing Manager, Henrik Alverdal, in seeking new business opportunities for Jonkoping Airport's cargo facility.
