| Belgrade Airport halves expected growth rate for 2015 |
Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport has revised its growth forecast for 2015 and is now expected to handle between 4.8 and 4.9 million passengers by year's end. While the figure represents its busiest year on record, the growth rate has been halved compared to the management's initial estimates. "This year we will record growth of up to 5%, between 4.8 and 4.9 million passengers", the airport's Managing Director, Saša Vlaisavljević, says. Earlier this year, Mr Vlaisavljević predicated the airport would see 10% growth in 2015. The airport has been affected by a decline in the number of flights operated by foreign carriers over the past few months, although there were still more aircraft movements during the January - October period compared to the same time last year.
Belgrade Airport saw its passenger numbers decline in October. It welcomed 401.542 travellers through its doors, a decrease of 1.3% compared to the same month last year. Furthermore, the airport registered a reduction in the number of operated flights during the month, with 4.870 take-offs and landings, down from 4.908 in October 2014, or a decline of 0.8%. Overall, this year, Nikola Tesla Airport handled 4.169.970 passengers, an increase of 4.3%. During the month, the airport handled its four-millionth traveller over two weeks ahead of last year. While flight operations declined in October, the airport managed to record over 50.000 aircraft movements within a ten month period for the first time in its history. It has now registered 50.489 operations, up 1.4% on 2014. At the same time, the amount of processed commercial freight doubled to 1.192.905 kg.
| Month | PAX | Change (%) |
|---|---|---|
| JAN | 308.381 | ▲ 13.8 |
| FEB | 264.816 | ▲ 14.1 |
| MAR | 315.283 | ▲ 11.6 |
| APR | 381.401 | ▲ 3.6 |
| MAY | 406.121 | ▲ 5.8 |
| JUN | 461.490 | ▲ 2.3 |
| JUL | 564.629 | ▲ 4.6 |
| AUG | 574.654 | ▼ 0.3 |
| SEP | 491.656 | ▲ 1.3 |
| OCT | 401.542 | ▼ 1.3 |
Despite some negative trends over the past few months, Mr Vlasisavljević, who previously managed Jat Airways, says the airport will see record profit this year. "We will record profit of over 23 million euros, which, together with 2014, is a new record", Mr Vlaisavljević notes. The airport expects that the introduction of transatlantic flights will help fuel growth in 2016. As this year comes to a close, monthly figures at the former Yugoslavia's busiest airport are expected to continue to record negative growth since foreign carriers have reduced their operations to the Serbian capital and Air Serbia has scaled back its network this winter season.

| Belgrade Airport plans to install five auto bag drop kiosks |
Meanwhile, Belgrade plans to purchase five automated baggage drop-off kiosks next year, becoming the first EX-YU airport to offer the service. The self service product allows passengers to check-in their baggage within seconds. The new kiosks will be located in the expanded check-in area at the airport, which will also include an additional seven traditional check-in desks. The airport is overhauling 700 square metres of space for the extended check-in area. A tender to select a contractor to adapt the area closes in February 2016. Belgrade Airport embarked on a forty million euro expansion and overhaul project this year with the aim to increase capacity by 35%.

U januaru, februaru i martu će te brojke da budu još lošije.
Direktor pokušava sada da prikaže sve lepo i upravo zato i jest sada prezentovana ova statistika, da se unapred zamaskira loš rezultat koji će da sledi. Što ne napravi pres konferenciju na početku godine za 2015. kao i svi, pa da vidiš bruke? Što sada iznosi podatke a godina još nije pri kraju.
A što se tiče automatskog čekina super, samo nešto se mnogo odgađa i izdradnja novih gejtova na c konkursu, a i ovaj tender. Ne verujem dok ne vidim.
Even more important, BEG's results are still way above any numbers that would have been achieved without Air Serbia. But your desperation for any given reduction or negative trend is so strong that it beats out any sense for reality.
Anyone with the slightest contact with those airlines.
He made these comments at the beginning of the year when all airlines have already published their timetables for the summer season.
And from April we can clearly observe the great reduction in the rate of growth compared with the first quarter.

Juce odlaznih: 65, dolaznih 62

Tako prijatelju, sta da ti kazem, kratki su ti prsti...
То што дилетанти са БЕГ-а стављају и карго авионе међу путничке је да би се створила илузија разноврсности, тако да преброј понови и прескочи теретне. 56 одлазних и 1 отказан
I naravno da je velik napredak instaliranje ovih kioska za letove za USA/CAN najvaznije .

Those same people predicted that the very moment BEG's growth slows down or halts, armies of haters will invade this blog from all directions to triumph on it. DOOM, MASSIVE REDUCTIONS, ALL FLIGHTS DELAYED, LOW LF, WINTER IS COMING...
We know all these chants by heart. And we know they make you so happy. And it is good that you can have organic happiness because good medications are not easy to get these days. The greatest thing of all is that Air Serbia makes everyone happy, some when it grows and some when it shrinks. But everyone gets happy at the end.
Trade Air je kupio zrakoplov A320-200; opremljen CFM56-5A3 motorima, serijski broj MSN 795. Zrakoplov je trenutno u operacijama prijevoznika SATA International i biti ce dostavljen Trade Airu u travnju 2016.godine. Po dostavljanju zrakoplova planirano je održavanje istoga, kao i radovi na eksterijeru i interijeru nakon cega ce zrakoplov biti doveden u konfiguraciju 180 sjedala.
Planirani pocetak letenja je u lipnju 2016.godine. na ACMI letovima.
Zrakoplovi Fokker 100 ce i dalje biti u operacijama Trade Air-a.

То није лош него поражавајући резултат
@ ИНН Унуче бабино, упишанко мамин и татин, карго авион превози кромпире, пиштоље и што шта друго, а путничи авион људе. Ове две категорије су раздвојене у статистици.
Једном када седнеш у авион немој се зачудити када крај себе на другом седиштву видиш човека
Napisao sam na CAF-u da bi se moglo desiti da pad bude 55.000 mjesečno (a ne 50.000) jednostavnom računicom,
62 tjedne frekvencije manje = 124 tjedna leta manje
124 leta x 4,5 tjedana u mjesecu = 558 letova mjesečno
558 x 100 putnika po letu = 55.800 putnika.
No, tu treba uzeti u obzir i neke druge faktore
+ smenjenje frekvencija u nekim slučajevima znači bolji LF, što znači više putnika po jedinici prijevoza, pa samim time manje letova ne znači i jednak broj putnika manje
+ za očekivati je da neke firme pošalju i veće avione od planiranih zbog povečanog pritiska na smanjeni broj letova
+ za očekivati je i reakcija ostalih prijevoznika na ogromno smenjenje Air Serbije, pa me ne bi čudilo povečanje kapaciteta, pa čak i frekvencija u kasnijim mjesecima zimske sezone.
+ Air Serbia je i prošle godine otkazivala letove i time smanjila broj frekvencija, što znači da realno smanjenje neće biti baš toliko veliko
- manja frekvencija letova znači i manji broj prihvatljivih konekcija te putnike koji se odlučuju na konekcije preko drugih aerodroma
- manja frekvencija u nekim slučajevi znači odluku potencijalnog putnika za korištenje alternativnog aerodroma ili vida prijevoza (automobil, vlak, autobus) jer mu ponuđeni dani ne odgovaraju
- isto znači i manje turista koji su podosta razmaženi i traže određene frekvencije ili biraju druge destinacije
Dakle, matematika ne može biti toliko jednostavna. Smanjenja će sigrno biti no nitko ozbiljan ne bi se smio nasanjkati na procjenu konkretnih brojki. A i da će se baš obistiniti najpesimističnija brojka od 55.000 putnika, sigurno da neće.
-5 BH Airlines, Sarajevo, cancel route
-3 easyJet, Milano, cancel route
-2 Swiss, Geneva, cancel route
-2 Swiss, Zurich
-3 Alitalia, Rome
-7 Lufthansa, Frankfurt
-7 Lufthansa, Munich
-2 Aegean, Athens (bigger plane but less frequencies)
-35 Air Serbia
= -69 flights per week
More flights than last winter:
+1 Norwegian, Stockholm
+1 Pegasus, Istanbul
+1 Wizz, Eidhoven
+1 Wizz, Gothenburg
+3 Qatar, Doha
= +7 flights per week
So it is -62 flights per week!!!
Koliko se meni cini vi ste izgleda upisanko posto ni jedan Aerodrom ih ne odvaja .

- A3 is adding capacity ie seats regardless of them dropping 2 flights p/w.
- AZ I believe is using bigger ac to BEG ie A319/A320 rather than the ERJ.
- TP last winter had some issues with its network with ac shortages.
Would be better to know the change in capacity, that is by amount of seats reduced. There is definitely a reduction.
Ipak, neki ljudi iz B&H još uvek koriste Beograd za jeftinije letove, npr za Bove i Luton.
Ne znam kako je sada ali ranije su bile agencije slične Gea tursu, bavile su se prevozom ljudi iz Bosne do Nikole Tesle.
Uzletanje i sletanje se racuna nema veze dali je to Kargo ili Putnicki Avion .

Ali ja mislim da ce to mozda dovesti i do kupovine i da bi se E190 mogli odlicno iskoristiti za ASL.

Once completed new Zagreb airport terminal will be best equipped and most capable to handle large volumes of traffic in the entire ex-Yu region, there are plans for fast track check in/E passport and passport processing for EU passport holders, which speeds up passport processing really fast,
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/58/Heathrow_Terminal_5_ePassport_gates.jpg
And few other bits to handle large volumes of traffic.
Not sure if Belgrade airport has any plans for e-passport check ins yet, so far only major airports in the EU have it, Paris, Frankfurt, Vienna, London all 4 airports, Madrid, Barcelona ,Amsterdam and all the major Scandinavian airports.

50% of traffic in BEG belongs to carriers other than Air Serbia. Your hatred may be as high as Mt Everest but it cannot change material facts.
1. 8.30am to 10.30am
2. 1.30pm to 4.30pm
3. 7pm to 10.30pm
4. 12.30am to 5am
the airport is a ghost town - meaning that there is ample capacity for additional flights to be operated. Once these fill out and the airport becomes "slot constrained" and then becomes grouped with other slot constrained airports, where slots get formally traded, it might make sense to look at another runway. BUT, BEG is a long long way from that .....
So while you might be lacking in love and in need of a hug, what you need alot of - and fast - is a dose of 'material' reality
You are obviously someone who doesn't understand much about modern aviation - which is ok - so i won't keep you long from your morning hunt for food - but let me tell you something about BIG airports and their needs.
They need to be customer friendly, which means modern and efficient. Everything nowadays is focused more on the passenger experience. That's what drives value in airports as assets, so it is not unusual to see huge investments being made in airport infrastructure - all in the name of improving the passenger experience to make it much more passenger friendly. Look at what the French are doing in Zagreb as a prime example of this. If you make that better, then people will want to travel to and through your airport, as opposed to the one which is still in the 19th century - like BEG airport is.
So what i am trying to say, is that if there is any investment that needs to be made in BEG airport, it should be made in terminal facilities and not in building a 2nd runway, for which there is currently absolutely no need.
Once you get enough traffic and at a critical mass, then the need for a 2nd runway will naturally follow thereafter.
Hope you stayed till the end of the story - now you can go out and catch some food ....
Dajte, da se ne ponašamo ko mala djeca!
Budapest 2m population. Ferenc Liszt airport 10 million passengers.
Sada kada jedan prevoznik bude to kontrolisao, cene vise nece biti takve. Imam takav slucaj za od do putnike za na relaciji BEG FCO.
kakva druga pista... ni ova nije iskoriscena
