Roko Tolić, executive director of Airports of Montenegro, expects that this tourist season could bring new record results, but warns that without serious investments in infrastructure, airports will not be able to keep up with the growth in the number of passengers.

"We have almost a million and a half passengers to date, which is about 17 percent more than last year. And we are just entering the peak season, when certain carriers that have not yet started flying to our airports will join. We are very optimistic," Tolić said in "Colors of Morning" on TV Vijesti.

He said that the decision on the future management model must be made as soon as possible, as further delay could slow down the company's development.

"We do not offer the comfort that we should offer passengers at modern European airports. We do not run away from responsibility, but in order to bear it, we must have the ability to embark on infrastructural adaptation... Airports do not and cannot benefit from this situation. The status quo has lasted not for a year, two or three, but for more than seven years," said Tolić.

He announced that Montenegro Airports will receive a new route to Leeds Bradford Airport next year, emphasizing that this is a significant British market.

He added that there is also interest in connecting with Zagreb.

"The line to Zagreb had by far the largest number of votes in citizen surveys. The countries in the immediate vicinity should be connected," he said. Tolić said that there is also a desire for a line to Dublin.
