Radom Airport is shifting its development strategy to a hybrid model that combines passenger services with non-passenger activities to ensure financial stability.
In 2025, Warsaw-Radom Airport handled 95,600 passengers and completed 2,200 civil aviation operations, according to a statement from Polish Airports (PPL). However, the previous passenger-driven growth model, based primarily on low-cost airlines and charters, failed to provide financial stability for this investment. The new strategy proposes moving away from this one-dimensional approach towards a more flexible and realistic development model.
The new strategy for Warsaw-Radom Airport is based on a hybrid model that integrates passenger functions with non-passenger activities such as cargo operations, aircraft maintenance, and aviation training. This comprehensive approach is intended to reframe Radomβs image beyond just passenger statistics, positioning the airport as a responsive entity to market needs, particularly in terms of infrastructure and workforce development for the aviation sector. Marcin DaniΕ, a member of the PPL board responsible for financial and commercial matters, provided insights into this strategic shift.
This change is particularly significant in the context of the competitive aviation industry, where airports must diversify their services to ensure sustainable growth. By concentrating on both passenger and non-passenger market segments, Radom Airport aims to enhance its financial viability and contribute to the broader aviation ecosystem in Poland, addressing current market demands and anticipating future growth opportunities.
