VINCI to transform Belgrade Airport by 2023


Belgrade Airport's new operator VINCI plans to transform the airport within the first five years of its concession. According to Belgrade Airport's General Manager, Saša Vlaisavljević, who has been presented with VINCI's plans, the majority of the 732 million euros earmarked for investment will be disbursed by 2023. "Belgrade Airport, with the planned investments which will in large part be utilised during the first five years of the concession, will look nowhere near to what it does today. I am fascinated by what is planned but it is not my place to reveal this information. At this point, all I can say is that Belgrade Airport will look entirely different in five years time", Mr Vlaisavljević told the RTS public broadcaster. He added, "This year we estimate handling some 5.6 million passengers. The figure will rise to fifteen million in five years". For its part, VINCI has set a target for Belgrade to handle at least seven million passengers per year by 2024 and ten million by 2030.

Touching upon its future plans, VINCI Airports Chairman, Nicolas Notebaert, noted, "In the digital economy of today, we will bring many new things to Belgrade from the very beginning in terms of quality of service. We will also develop a very strong airline marketing development policy for the airport. We will work very hard with other airlines to create routes which develops connectivity for the country and the city and brings many new visitors. This is our motto. We believe in the project and we think that with our network and knowledge we can also try to bring the best airlines to open new routes and enable new connectivity". He added, "Within Nikola Tesla Airport, we will deploy our HR (human resources) policies, values and practices, social dialogue, health and safety at work, training - through our VINCI Airports Academy - management, innovation and very entrepreneurial culture because we are the first private airport operator in the world. We look forward to making Nikola Tesla Airport our herb in the Southeast Europe region".

VINCI has put an emphasis on developing long haul traffic from Belgrade in the future. Mr Vlaisavljević said, "I can't say that I would be surprised that within the next six to seven months Belgrade Airport starts establishing links with Portugal, Brazil, Chile and Japan. VINCI sees Belgrade Airport as a transfer hub in their future plans". On the other hand, Mr Notebaert said, "As a concessionaire we will try to improve airport operating conditions to enable Air Serbia to offer new long haul routes. For Belgrade, we have an ambitious and very dynamic investment plan from the very beginning in order to foster the existing growth in traffic. However, most of all, our main objective is customer-oriented. Therefore, we will do our best to make sure every visitor remembers the airport in the best possible way. We will do this through the development of an appropriate concept. Both global, digital but also with a sense of place which will be specific to Belgrade and Serbia".

After signing the concession agreement with the Serbian government last Thursday, a transitional six-month period has begun, during which VINCI Airports has to meet the conditions precedent detailed in the concession agreement, such as the signing and entry into force of the financing agreement. Once the condition precedent is met, the 25-year concession will officially begin. Mr Vlaisavljević noted that he expects VINCI to take over and put in place a new management team at the earliest in September, although the process could take until November to be finalised. VINCI Airports is one of the top five international players in the airport sector. It runs thirteen airports in France, ten  in Portugal, six in the Dominican Republic, three in Cambodia, two in Japan and one in Chile.

      We need a proper new terminal building with separation of arriving and departing passengers. That one would allow for transfers to go through one separate security check and enter departure gates area. Current terminal(s) could be good for LCCs with some minor modifications (again separation of departure/arrival).

      It would be so good! However, even today when it is a public company there is no sign or advertisement for the museum in the airport building. For the company running the airport, museum is not a plus as they want people to stay and spend during transfer hours. Maybe if they get to run a cafe/restaurant or a souvenir shop inside museum...but who knows maybe that was put in the concession contract already.

    "VINCI sees Belgrade Airport as a transfer hub in their future plans"

    I am really curious as to how they imagine to achieve this??
    At least from SKP you can fly more or less to every village in Germany and Scandinavia and you have VIE,IST, ZRH, DOH and DXB as transfer hubs.
    Other ex-yu airports also have very good connectivity.

    Even if they introduce flights to Chile (!) they would really have to have at least very competitive prices or other perks to attract passengers to transfer to BEG.
    Anyway, I wish BEG best of luck and I hope at least something out of this bad PR materializes.

    15 million in the next f i v e years?! BEG won't see 15 million even in 2030 unless Air Serbia puts its act together and starts expending. They should have a fleet of at least 40 aircraft by then if they plan on having a significant share in the number of BEG passengers,which is very unlikely to happen unless Serbia experiences some unexpected economical boom. Also, the way they de decided to build a second runway is abhorrent, it will look rather repulsive seeing two runways so close to each other. They would have at least moved it some 300 meters from the existing one so they could both be used at the same time...

      BEG can have one runaway until surpass 20 million pax. Only problem is winter period when runaway must be cleaned of snow and with increase of traffic it will be impossible to handle such number of planes with single runaway. Second runaway even close one is important in that scenario. They won't be used at same time just as alternative if one can't be used.

      Of course it will be much better if they build proper second runaway but problem is that one whole settlement is built to close and demolition of all those houses and legal issues can take a lot of time specially in Serbia. People from the settlement already had few protests and asked that plans for the airport be changed.

      HEL for example has 3 runways and it still doesn't need that much. I think BEG can do the same. Build not 1 but 2 extra runways. They may leave 1 runway only for long-haul and the 2 rest for short haul.

      What is this obssession with BEG having two runways? Plenty of airports around who function perfectly normal with single runway and a lot more traffic than BEG (LGW, STN, SAW, ...) is even planning to have in 30 years. LGW has 45 mio pax/year (OK, they do have a backup runway, but they cannot use both at the same time), SAW over 30 and STN close to 25 mio pax/year. And you want BEG with 5.3 mio to start building the 2nd runway? Why?

      And even if you build a 2nd runway, to be fully useful, it needs to be at least 700m away from the current one, as is the case with all the large airports, where they put the terminal between the runways (OTP, ATH, LHR, MUC, etc.)

      Delete
    6. Anonymous12:29

      Thank you for the explanation. And why not have another extra runway in emergency cases or one day if the traffic really grows? Just look how many new wide bodies are seen. The cargo is growing and the morning departures too. I don't see a reason why BEG shouldn't have at least 1 more runway.

      Delete
    7. Anonymous12:52

      For backup purposes, it would probably be much cheaper to convert part of Batajnica to a civil airport as it is just around the corner and facilities (runways, apron) are already there.

      As for the widebodies, they actually reduce the need for more runway space. Let's say 30 aircraft can takeoff and land per hour on one runway. If these 30 aircraft are ATR72, your runway capacity is 30x70 = 2100 pax/hour. If these 30 aircraft are EK A380 it's 30x615 = 18450 pax/hour. That's why A380 is so popular for flights between large hubs.

      Delete
    8. Anonymous13:04

      2nd runway is required when 1st one is closed for FOD or snow removal, for equipment repairs or resurfacing, during emergency landings etc. Two runways make operations easier.

      Delete
    9. Anonymous15:24

      Easier, yes, but somebody needs to pay for this. Are passengers willing to pay a substantial premium not to have a bit of delay when it snows heavily or the runway is blocked because of emergency landing? I doubt it.

      It's kind of like having A330 fly BEG-ZAG just in case there is a more booked passengers than for ATR or A320. Sure, would be nice, but to be realistic...

      Well if they decide to build a runway then at least 5 years will pass before it's complete. By that time BEG will handle over 10 million passengers.

      World can be a different place and governments can be transparent and accountable. Plus I am quite sure you did not take a commission for any part of this deal but will have to finance from your tax money if anything goes wrong.

      Show us where Vinci published complete agreement and you might have a point; without it you are just a troll without any argument.

      It is not up to companies to publish contracts but governments. Better World is possible.

      Then go fight for it around the world and come back when you succeed there. Your insane request is not backed by any other previous case. You p*** on democracies of France, Portual, Japan etc as if you invented democracy and thir citizens have no idea what transparency is. You reject reality and make wrong conclusions, as I don't pay taxes in Serbia. Grow up.

      With no evidence in favor of full transparency, we can now close the case.

    First they should definitely upgrade existing services, refurbish A7-A10, extend that area by adding an additional 3 gates, Extend C concourse by adding another 4 gates.

      That is not impressive at all. We are waiting for a new modern terminal.

      Šta će nam novi terminal? Trenutni kapacitet je 8 miliona, kad se to dostigne-onda neka grade novo-ovo samo treba utegnuti.

      Bato, svrati do dolazne pasoske kontrole i preuzimanja prtljaga u letnjem spicu kada su svi avioni na svim mostovima da vidis kako je utegnuto i kakvi su redovi sa samo 5.5 miliona. Sadasnji kapacitet terminala realno nije ni 7 miliona, a to ce se dostici za manje od 2-3 godine. Sad je vreme da planiraju prosirenja terminala, to ne moze da se napravi preko noci. Vidi koliko se dugo gradio novi terminal kod vas u ZAG.

    So, it seems that flights to Guadeloupe, Réunion, SCL or GIG are closer to become reality...? Or you're going to make fun of it as usual? Typical Balkan way.

      Once weekly charter flights BEG-PTP are realistic, this will allow Serbs to fly to newer destinations. It's not all about Egypt, Tunis or Greece! Serbians want something new.

      Did you ever think why even London or Amsterdam or Munich cannot sustain a flight to PTP but you really think BEG can? Oh my god. Oh my god. This is so hilarious

    Hope the takeover happens in September so they can get to work as soon as possible and we can see the full plans.

    So according to Vlaisavljevic growth at BEG this year should be around 3-4%?

      Yes, 5.6 million would equal that percentage growth.

      March numbers should be a good indicator of the overall growth this year.

      With JU cutting its flight schedule compared with last year the growth will come from foreign airlines increasing traffic.

      Well this summer are are going to have an additional 5 weekly widebody flights compared to last year:

      2x Hainan
      2x Mahan
      1x JFK

      Many airlines are adding passengers. Last Sunday I was flying to AMS with Transavia and it was packed - 189/189. We will probably see close to 6 mil this year.

    6. Anonymous18:20

      Plus let's not forget LO which is adding three more flights compared to last year and the smallest plane is E75.

      I wouldn't be surprised to see the E95 most of the times.

      If BEG can get between 5% and 10% in March it would be great.

    Interestingly Vinci has already been involved in a few infrstructure projects in Serbia over the past 15 years.
