Airports play an important role in the whole transport system of each country. After the liberalization of the air transport market, the importance of airports, particularly in the regions, started to grow because, besides their main functions of increasing mobility, they were also considered as elements increasing economic competitiveness of these regions. With the aim to support the development of regional airports in particular, a number of investment projects was realized. Unfortunately, not all of them brought the expected success. The main goal of this article is to assess regional airports as competitors, struggling to gain and retain more passengers and, as a result, in most cases also to get additional financial support. To realize this aim, an approach to estimate the potentials of regional airports and their usage was created and, furthermore, tested based on the Polish case study.
