Currently, the Airport is working with different airlines on the international flight schedules for the next flying season. It is exepcted that the international flights will significantly increase in number in the coming winter/spring season. 

As the circuit breaker scheme is canceled, the international flights increase, a supply-demand balance is expected, "which will lead to the reasonable adjustment of ticket prices".
