Air Serbia boosts summer network



Air Serbia will be adding frequencies on a number of its existing routes this summer season as it prepares to introduce nine new destinations to its network. The airline will also boost capacity on selected services. At this point, the Serbian carrier will add an extra weekly flight onto seven routes. These include Copenhagen, Dubrovnik, Paris, Sofia, Stockholm, Tivat and Zagreb, while an additional two weekly services will be introduced to Zurich, when compared to the 2018 summer season. The airline will run double daily flights to the French capital, where it will compete against Air France and ASL Airlines France this summer. Furthermore, in a boost to its Scandinavian operations, both Copenhagen and Stockholm will be maintained on a daily basis. In addition, Tivat will be operated 22 times per week, Zagreb twelve, Sofia eight per week, while Zurich will be run up to eighteen times per week.

The airline plans to boost capacity on some routes as well. Three of its double daily flights to Vienna will be operated with the 144-seat Airbus A319 aircraft this summer instead of the seventy-seat ATR72 turboprop, while all six of its services to Split will be maintained with the A319 instead of the ATR. On the other hand, the airline will also decrease frequencies on five routes by one weekly flight, in order to free up capacity for some of the abovementioned destinations. Athens, Berlin, Milan, Skopje and St Petersburg will all have one flight per week less than last year. As a result, operations to the Greek capital (double daily), as well as Milan (daily), and St Petersburg (three weekly) will now be maintained by the same number of frequencies as they were during the 2017 summer season.

Air Serbia previously announced the launch of nine new routes, seven of which will be year-round and two of which will be maintained seasonally. The new destinations will mostly see Air Serbia return to markets formerly operated by its predecessor JAT Yugoslav Airlines. Flights to Rijeka and Zadar were last run in August 1990, services to Madrid and Barcelona last operated in November 1998, to Cairo in March 2005 and to Kiev in September 2016. Nice, Krasnodar and Helsinki have never been served from Belgrade by either Air Serbia or its predecessor. Commenting on its new link to Belgrade, the Director of Route Development at Helsinki Airport's operator Finavia, Petri Vuori, said, "It's great to see yet another airline joining Helsinki Airport. Air Serbia and the new Belgrade route opening is a great addition to our connections to the Balkan Peninsula".

      Speaking of AYT, I wonder if it is worth JU making it a seasonal destination rather than just keeping it charter. That is, block a set amount of seats requested by agencies and selling excess capacity.

      Regarding API and APJ, there was rumours that they would be replaced by ex Rossiya A319's, one being reported as EI-EZD however that ended up going to RJ and is re-registered JY-AYY. Another rumour was that an ATR (VT-JCZ) that arrived from 9W in BEG last week was probably for JU however that flew out to Denmark a few days ago.

      Long hawl has been operating for years now. The economic environment and the performance of a company changes from one quarter to another.
      So Norwegian for the last few years is loss making.
      That is the company we are talking about and not the one from 2013.

    8. kraspeed10:35

      They are making cuts on short haul, but that doesn't make it necessarily not profitable. Cuts go along with selling and leasing out 737s and NEOs which are probably easier to sell compared to 787s. My guess is that they believe their long haul operations will work and are willing to give it more time even though it makes losses. Also, you can imagine how badly giving up long haul not long after launching it could affect their shares and reputation.
      Someone above mentioned their poor LF, but their high costs are by far the biggest problem. I guess O'Leary is right when he says Norwegian is a low-fare but not a low-cost airline.

    Do we know when the extra flight to SOF will operate? I suppose it will be a 00.30 departure from BEG, hopefully it connects to MAD and BCN.

    By the way, I was looking at some flights to BCN in August and some are already fully booked while some are on the A320! Maybe we see an increase there?

    As for Dubrovnik, I think we might see a drop in demand to the Croatian coast after the waterpolo incident. I guess JU could easily redirect those flights to MNE.

    I think the decrease in the ATH, SKP and LED are all logic.
    ATH because of A3 increasing frequencies and equipment.
    SKP because of the W6. W6 is becoming absolutely dominant as a carrier in Macedonia.
    LED because of KRR and fewer demand compared to SVO.

    The other increases were extremely logical: Scandinavia always with demand.
    Clearly demand for the Croatian coast and SOF because of both transfer and O&D.

      Athens is being reduced because the flight departed BEG at 07.30 and relied on local demand and connections from JFK. Return flight barely had any viable connections. It was a disaster from day 1. The plane is redirected to another route where they can make much more money.

      SKP and LED are probably cut because they needed planes elsewhere. Same way why Tirana and Bucharest are mostly operated at night. In OTP's case that's really good as an Atr can't make it there and back in time during the noon wave.

I remember reports in early 2016 (when Air Serbia was getting ready to launch JFK) about other support Etihad is providing to get that route off the ground, including crew training at AUH and FCO, painting and reconfiguring A330 at AUH, ongoing maintenance, additional backup with Etihad equipment when YU-ARA A330 is out of service (as is right now: BEG-JFK service is operated by Etihad plane while ARA is undergoing maintenance in AUH) etc. When you have only one A330, that overall "we got your back" from EY is more important than just getting rock bottom lease rate on the market. But haters don't have smarts to understand that.

      The lease rate for YU-ARA seems to be industry average. As of April 2018, lease rates for an A332 seem to be between 190-680.000$USD per month.

      JFK seems to be doing ok for JU. They seem to be making money May-September since they're boosting it a second season to 6 pw. Another 1-2 A330's might be good for JU. EY is bringing out their A330's from their fleet that are around YU-ARA's age.

      DEL could easily fit into connecting the European and North American banks:

      BEG DEL 1315 0045
      DEL BEG 0215 0530


      YYZ should be slightly shorter than JFK. China (PVG) is something that would utilize the A330 almost 24h. Boost JFK to daily in peak season and 3-5 pw in the winter. Add in the possibility for a charter flight between rotations (AYT for example). Additional long haul destinations could help the seasonality of the A330 fleet.

    They need to find a way to improve their sales so that their summer seasonal routes can survive the whole year.

    I'm surprised Ohrid didn't work out for them. Would be nice to see them back.

      i think it was a decision between Rijeka and Ohrid. I really hope Rijeka's flights are not after midnight like it was last time with OHD

  19. Odlican povratak Er Srbije na nove destinacije i znacajno uvecanje letova na pet - sest starih u ovoj sezoni. Ovakav trend se uklapa u strategiju VINCI Airports. Ipak Nacionalnom prevoziocu nedostaje veoma ozbiljan investitor. Veci broj regionalnih aviona, umanjenje broja zaposlenih. Agresivnija komercijalna sluzba... Jednom recju privatizacija. Za veci broj ljudi ovo izgleda ''svetogrdje''. Ipak dosadasnje poslovanje Er Srbije pokazuje da zbog nedovoljne flote, prekobrojnog broja zaposljenih u odnosu na broj sedista flote, sezonskih devijacija... Bez promena nema bolitka. Vreme uzimanja od poreskih obaveznika i nosenja zastave na repu i u Srbiji se uvidelo da nije dovoljno. Ipak sezonska poboljsanja samo sezonu prave uspesniju. Vlade Srbije ocigledno od ove godine agendu civilne avijaciju i infrastrukturu postavlja shodno razvoju, turizmu, investicijama i buducnosti komunikacije Srbije sa svetom. Er Srbiji reorganizacijom biznisa i odgovornosti tek zapocinju. Poceli su sa dobijanjem imena svoje drzave Srbije. To jeste dobar pocetak i uslov da su poslovnost i odgovornost temelj da krila bogate Srbiju. A ne da joj zavlace ruke u dzep poreznika...
    Sa nadom za razvoj kompanije Air Serbia ostajte u dobru.
    U izcekivanju preksutrasnje prezentacije plana, mape razvoja Beogradskog aerodroma od strane VINCI Airports, veliki pozdrav.

    Belgrade is getting, without Air Serbia, around 40 weekly rotations next summer season and together with Air Serbia it will be between 65 and 70 new weekly rotations!
    And almost all of them are legacy carriers!
    What a great result for Belgrade Airport and Air Serbia!

      Yes, truly impressive really. I wonder if LO and U2 might add a few more flights before summer.

    Red Wings operated 3 weekly flights last summer if I am not wrong, it will be 4 this year. They are also changing their schedule.

    DME-BEG 16.10-18.00
    BEG-DME 19.00-22.50

    It's not a bad schedule especially since SU is moving its own evening flight to 20.20. Red Wings will have the most convenient evening departure out of Belgrade.

      00.45 SU
      06.35 JU
      13.10 SU
      17.05 JU
      19.00 WZ
      20.20 SU
      23.40 JU

      34 weekly flights.
