This is also attributed to the new air lines and especially the opportunities for connections to destinations that were not easy and accessible before.

One of the most prestigious lines in the world, “Iberia” has recently been added to the list of air lines operating in Albania, connecting Tirana with Madrid (3 times a week).

Travelers from Albania now have the opportunity to connect to all continents via Mardrid and benefit from Madrid’s rich list of connections with Latin America, North America and Asia.

“Iberia” is part of the IAG group, which also includes British Airways, which is also present in Albania since 2006.
Tirana International Airport welcomed 40% more passengers, reaching a figure of 7,257,574 passengers in 2023. While this year, the number of passengers is expected to reach 8.4 million.

In January of this year, work kicked off on the expansion of the runway at Rinas airport, to enable long-haul flights. Tirana – New York flights will start in the first quarter of 2025.
