Air Serbia schedules new Kraljevo service

NEWS FLASH


Air Serbia has scheduled seasonal flights between Kraljevo and Thessaloniki, which were initially to launch last year but were shelved as a result of the coronavirus pandemic. Ticket sales for the new route have now resumed, with the national carrier to maintain one weekly service for just over a month, each Tuesday, from July 13 until August 24. Operations will be maintained with the ATR72 turboprop aircraft. The airline does not plan to restore flights on its year-round Kraljevo - Vienna service until at least October 1. Further flight details for the new Thessaloniki flights can be found here.

    YAAAYY!!!! I will fly this route purely out of principle. Would be better Friday or Saturday for the flight to coordinate with summer travel. Who makes these schedules?!?! Gyros and Uzo bre

      You will need a lot of Ouzo (not Uzo) and Gyros for 6-7 hours of drive + stops along the route + at the border. Or a short flight without crowds at KVO airport. And if you say driving is cheaper, just wait until you get a ticket after drinking all that Ouzo, bre.

      Honestly, still don't get the logic of this route.
      It's like launching KVO-CFU or TIA but.......KVO is competing with INI and BEG, so....lets see...lets see...жовым пожовым

      KVO is not really competing with BEG and INI because there are markets like Novi Pazar, Cacak, Valjevo, Uzice, Kraljevo... that would rather fly to SKG from KVO than BEG.

    My new hope to takeoff. KVO - SKG - KVO. Return flights on the same day. First flights on boh airports!

      Were you one of those who said KVO would never open? Check your blood pressure come July.

  4. Why they do not fly KVO-BEG first?

      Maybe if Airserbia owned a few Dash8-100 or Beechcraft1900s you could pull that route:))

      Why not lease one (or two) and fly BEG-INI-KVO-BEG and vice versa?

    3. It would be a good idea, especially for those with connecting flights.

      Plus INI or KVO to BNX would be a great route.

      KVO to TIV should also be considered, as it's still a 6 hour drive + border checks to get to Budva. I just got back from CG by car and it took me over 7 hours to get to Cacak because of all the construction works on the way to Podgorica. Again, this needs to be a weekend flight.

    4. Indeed, it could work on Sat or Sun. KVO has almost half a million people within 60min catchment area. I'm sure there are more than 60-70 people per week who would choose to fly, rather than drive 7-8 hours. KVO-TIV flight is longer than BEG-SJJ for example.
      What KVO really needs is connectivity. Ideally, BEG flight could work. Next best thign, is route specific codeshare with Austrian (or at least an interline). Lastly, self-transfer can work in Vienna for leisure, I suppose, provided a good schedule.

      Belgrade is too close, makes no sense. On the other hand, Belgrade to Užice (Ponikve) might make some sense.

      Kraljevo - Tivat is indeed needed, as well as a code share agreement with Austrian.

      Kraljevo - Ljubljana might work, speaking of ATR operations.

      There will be plenty of opportunities for LCC once new runway is built.

    6. Code share agreement with Austrian would not impact Air Serbia financially in any significant way (say 3 flights per week with JU's ATR), however it would open central Serbia to the world year round.
