When using the airport, the charges included in the AIP and calculated in EUR shall be paid in EUR.

It shall be the duty of the operator of the flight to pay the charges for the use of the airport. If the operator cannot be identified, the owner of the aircraft determined by the registration number, shall be obliged to pay the charge.

The charges due shall be paid in advance. Prepayment shall take place on the basis of calculation. The operator/owner of the aircraft shall request the calculation from the airport operator by sending an email to:

The following data shall be submitted to the airport operator for the purpose of prepayment:

  • the aircraft type and subtype,
  • flight number,
  • registration number,
  • time of arrival and departure,
  • MTOW,
  • expected passenger number,
  • and seating capacity.

Based on the above data, the airport operator shall prepare the pre-calculation and send it to the airline within two working days of the receipt of the request. In the case of prepayment, the calculated amount must be transferred to the bank account of the airport operator not later than the working day preceding the date of the flight. When requesting prepayment all the above mentioned deadlines shall be considered. If the prepayment does not arrive in the airport‘s bank account in time, the airport shall be entitled to demand the payment of the airport charges on the spot either in cash or by bank card.

Until the due charges are paid, the airport operator shall be entitled to prevent take-off without prejudice to the safety of air transport.

In the case of occasional, individual flights the mass of the given aircraft type derived from the ICAO Doc 7100 - Tariffs for Airports and Air Navigation Services, Selective Lift of maximum Licensed Take-off Weights For Aircraft. (page 1-13 to 1-17) will be used for the calculation.Those airport users operating flights regularly can submit the data (registration number, aircraft type-model, take-off weight and noise emission data) of the aircraft they intend to operate at the airport.

The airport operator shall not be liable for damages arising from a failure to submit data, from the missing of the deadline for data submission, or from the submission of incorrect data; and the airport user will not, therefore, be entitled to claim damages. The data should be submitted to:

In the case when the required data has not been submitted to the airport operator by an aircraft operator which has regular flights to the airport, the aircraft’s mass data, derived from ICAO Doc 7100, will be used for the calculation.
