Toruń is a city of 209 thousand inhabitants (0,6 million in a two-city agglomeration). The airport in Toruń already possesses a runway of 4100 ft. There is pressure from local politicians to adapt the local airport to serve domestic flights, and, after expanding the landing strip by (version 1–200 meters, version II- 500) meters to over (v.I- 1500 meters, version II-2000 meters), also international flights to this tourist destination; due to its unique gothic-styled city-centre, it is on the UNESCO world heritage list and is one of the favourite Polish tourist destinations.
