In total, 4,510 flights were operated across the LTOU network in November – 4 percent more than in November last year. Vilnius Airport handled 3,232 flights, Kaunas Airport – 894 flights, and Palanga Airport – 384 flights.
Passenger flows in November were also affected by temporary airspace restrictions at Vilnius Airport. Throughout the month, airspace above Vilnius Airport was temporarily restricted seven times due to detected navigation markers characteristic of contraband balloons. As a result, 128 flights and more than 17 thousand passengers were affected. It is estimated that the share of impacted passengers represents around 5 percent of all travellers served at Vilnius Airport in November.
Comparing the statistics of November this year with the same period in 2024, the winter aviation season has started more actively this year.
