"We are constantly talking to other low-cost carriers. We can forget about Easy Jet for several years. They are doing well in the Western market. We are talking to Spain's Vueling and Norwegian. Our region is interesting to them," it quoted Vilnius Airport CEO Gediminas Almantas as saying.
However, it is difficult to bring an airline into a market where Ireland's Ryanair and Hungary's Wizz Air have strong positions, the CEO said.
"The question is who wants to go somewhere where two carriers as strong as (Ryanair and Wizz Air) are already operating, and under such good conditions too. Nobody wants. So, any negotiations on our part are weak if we do not offer the same conditions. And we cannot offer such conditions," he said.
