The initial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic’s subsequent lockdown in Bosnia and Herzegovina began in mid-March as the government enforced restrictions and the country’s land borders were closed and flights grounded by the end of that month. All hotels and retail outlets, including travel agencies and car rental facilities were closed, and consumers remained largely restricted to their homes except in cases of essential movement.
A state of emergency was introduced on 17 March 2020, with a curfew imposed from 2000-0500hrs. Borders were closed on 25 March.
COVID-19 has had a severe impact on flights in Bosnia and Herzegovina, impacting all airlines. However, FlyBosnia was the only airline allowed to operate during lockdown, with a limited number of flights available for repatriation purposes as well as cargo-only flights carrying medical supplies.
In 2020, online booking portals such as Booking.com and Expedia remain largely unchanged and available to consumers.
Like most other large travel markets, travel in Bosnia and Herzegovina is expected to be severely impacted by COVID-19 in 2020 and beyond, although the FBiH government’s economic measures will protect the tourism industry somewhat, which means less financial pressure, less downsizing, and fewer permanent outlet closures than companies in many other countries. However, many travel companies in Bosnia and Herzegovina will suffer from the long-term effects of low demand, impacting airlines and lodgings the most while affecting attractions and intermediaries to a lesser extent.
