- Abstract
The article aims to present and interpret the results of a pilot survey carried out among passengers at the Warsaw Modlin Airport in 2016. It is discussed in the context of the development of the Polish airline market in recent years, selected elements of its structure and changes thereof. Flights to and from the Modlin airport are solely operated by low-cost airlines, which significantly facilitates access to and the separation of the group of passengers who do not permanently reside in Poland (defined as foreign visitors) as well as determining their characteristics. The survey whose main results are presented below was a pilot study, designed as the first stage of a larger research project mostly aimed at estimating the impact of inbound tourist traffic served by LCCs on the economy and indirectly, also on public finance (the budget, taxes). The objective of the first stage of the survey referred to in the article was to test the hypothesis that LCC passengers permanently residing abroad had attributes which called for further research. Taking into consideration a number of important criteria, their image does not significantly differ from the characteristics of all tourists visiting Poland. Neither do they account for a marginal share of air transport in the low-cost segment. In the opinion of the Author, the hypothesis was confirmed by the pilot survey results.
