International airports in Bosnia and Herzegovina
The country has four international airports, which serve as the main transport hubs:
Sarajevo Airport (SJJ):
As the largest and most important airport in the country, Sarajevo Airport is only around 25 minutes from the city centre and can be reached quickly by taxi or shuttle bus from the old town.
In recent years, it has broken its annual visitor records and was recently renovated. It serves as a hub for numerous international flights and offers a variety of connections to European cities, including Frankfurt, Vienna, Munich, London, Paris, Brussels, Stockholm, Copenhagen, Zurich, and Istanbul. Coming from the US, you will most likely have to change flights.

Due to its proximity to Sarajevo (approx. 2 hours by shuttle), Tuzla Airport is a good alternative to the capital.
