Air Serbia closes in on pre-Covid long haul performance


Air Serbia handled 61.702 passengers on its sole long haul service between Belgrade and New York, reaching 84.6% of its pre-pandemic numbers on the route. During 2021, Air Serbia is believed to have achieved its best financial results on the route since its launch, according to statements made by both airline and state officials. In the cargo department, the carrier recorded its best performance on record, uplifting 3.906 tonnes of cargo, up 120% on 2019, according to data provided to EX-YU Aviation News by the United States Bureau of Air Transport Statistics. “Despite the pandemic, our transatlantic flight has continued to deliver positive results. We were one of the few airlines that have flown to New York throughout the pandemic. New York in 2020 and 2021 is one of our most profitable routes”, Duncan Naysmith, the airline’s CEO at the time, said last year.

Air Serbia Belgrade - New York - Belgrade performance, 2021


Overall, there were slightly more passengers from the Serbian capital heading to the Big Apple, with 31.330 travellers boarding Air Serbia’s Airbus A330-200 aircraft in Belgrade. A total of 30.372 passengers flew from New York. The route’s operational results show high seasonality in line with frequency fluctuations throughout the year, with a surge of diaspora traffic in June, July and the first half of August, with those same passengers returning back to the States in late August and throughout September. July remains the route’s busiest month with 9.745 passengers, while February, traditionally the slowest in the aviation industry, being the quietest with 2.382 travellers.

Air Serbia will mark its sixth anniversary of operations to New York and the United States on June 23. “The Serbian flag carrier is the only airline in the region to have a regular nonstop year-round transatlantic flight. Air Serbia’s flights to the Big Apple are almost always at full capacity, and this route has contributed greatly to the development of tourism and business cooperation between the region of South-eastern Europe and the United States”, the company said. Air Serbia was the first Belgrade-based carrier to restore flights between the city and the United States in 2016 after almost a quarter of a century. In 1990, its final full year of uninterrupted operations, JAT Yugoslav Airlines, whose passenger numbers were already being impacted by a severe economic crisis and spiralling inflation at home, handled 201.292 passengers between Yugoslavia and the United States.

      JU has quite a good deal with NIS. There was mention of it on Insajder.

      In 2020, NIS donated 270 tonnes of fuel to JU for the cargo flights bringing in medical supplies to the country. I believe the A330 burns something around 6 tonnes of fuel per hour on long haul.

      JU also partnered with French company OpenAirlines in 2020 for better fuel management using their SkyBreathe technology.

      The COO certainly does not decide on which new routes will be launched. There is a department called Network Planning and it most certainly isn't being run by anyone from Jat Airways (there is almost no one from Jat left in the head office. Those few that are, are there because no one from the newer generations knew how to do the job). As for Grozndanic he has actually been COO for two and a half years. Just because you learnt about him yesterday does not mean that he has been there since yesterday. And while he has been COO Air Serbia has launched something like 20 new routes. But again he has nothing to do with deciding on where Air Serbia will fly.

      @10,28

      That isn't true and that was evident when ARA was replaced with ARB. If they wanted to back out from long haul and widebodies, the end of the lease for ARA would of been it.

      OK had that 1 A330 as KE maxed out on flights allowed to the Czech Republic and wanted more, hence why that aircraft was mainly flying to ICN. OK-YBA was brought in from KE, which had a 44% stake in OK.

      Fact is, JU has been very active with the A330 the past 2 years compared to previous years. It no longer has extensive ground time in BEG as it once did. I see this as testing the market in preparation for a 2nd aircraft to come.

      Delete
    6. Anonymous15:00

      JU A330 was flown long haul in 2020 to help with pandemic needs, not to test new markets. Recent deployments were to destinations reachable by A319 fleet where additional capacity was needed.

      Air Serbia does not want to back out from long haul but they don't want to expand either. They still don't understand why single plane long haul is not sustainable for them. Options are to completely stay out of long haul, like Aegean, or to put long haul network as a priority, like LOT.

      Delete
    7. JATBEGMEL15:21

      @15,00

      In previous years, where JU could of increased capacity, they didn't use the A330. We have started to see this change since 2020, before the pandemic, but especially now. Charters, scheduled routes, cargo runs for medical supplies.

      I didn't say they were testing new markets, but testing their current routes, to see how viable it is to maintain the A330 on scheduled routes until long haul frequencies pick up in late June. So far we have see the aircraft once a week scheduled to BCN, also jumping in to add capacity to ZRH, IST, CDG. Fact is that the A330 has been far more active than previous years which is positive development. Previously, it was parked in BEG in front of the Jat Tehnika hangars waiting for an increase in JFK frequencies for more utilisation.

      JU has never stated that they were not interested in long haul expansion. In fact they have been looking into a long haul expansion. Again, the fact that ARA was replaced with ARB indicates they are interested in staying in the long haul market.

      Delete
    8. Anonymous20:11

      ARB was a cost cutting opportunity.

      When was the last time Air Serbia official publicly said something about their long haul expansion (not existing route but expansion)? I really don't know, it must have been a very long time.

      Delete
    9. JATBEGMEL22:25

      Correct. ARB was a cost cutting move, however ARA was still replaced. If they were going to back out of long haul ops, that would of been the time to do it.

      JU doesn't talk much about any of its expansion plans, as don't most airlines. We typically find out the info here first before JU makes a statement. Just as was the case this year with their new routes, new ATR's, arrival of YU-APN, arrival of wet leases. However, YYZ back in 2018 confirmed that they were in advanced talks with JU. Vinci has mentioned that they are working with JU to support medium and long haul route expansion, officials have been to Canada, China and India preparing bilateral agreements. JFK was insisted on by the government, and I believe the second route will be as well. The government has been insisting on China, while JU apparently has slots for YYZ and there was some months back a petition signed by the Serbian community in Chicago to get JU to launch flights to ORD.

      Rushing into long haul isn't good either. The launch of JFK really damaged their finances (amongst others) and forced them into cost cutting measures to stabilise finances. The knock on effect was a downsizing of capacity on their routes, including regional. Long haul doesn't equal sustainability and it isn't a must for them. It would be nice to have, but not a must. Let's see their finances for 2021 and have this conversation then.

      I am afraid there will be those at Air Serbia pushing for no long haul expansion agenda even if 2021 results are good.

      @03,26

      That's something neither me or you knows. A319 leases are alot cheaper, Euro-Med routes can be launched with minimal investment and have positive results in a short space of time. Euro-Med is flexible in the sense you can announce a route in short notice and make it happen, cancel it if sales are not working and use capacity elsewhere. AER is being launched 3 weeks after being announced. That's not possible with long haul, or better put, a very stupid idea.

      @ 07,51

      Personally I think they are there now because they want to. However, the Serbian government was the one insisting on the route, and we see them insisting on further long haul growth, China in particular. Honestly, I think they should go for another US destination (ORD) and increase frequencies to JFK.

    I'm still wondering how they never managed to find a 2nd A330 during the last years to add more JFK frequencies and launch a second LH route. It's been a long time I'm following the news about future YYZ or PVG/PEK flights and nothing happened refer since.
    Also curious to find out if the current JFK slots and their pricing i.e if they are making money on this route because frequencies have always remained the same.

      What was JAT's DC-10 capacity?

      Jat's website listed 271 seats as the DC10 capacity. It doesn't mention capacity by class.

      Jat changed the capacity during the D check in the 90s. I believe there were somewhat fewer seats before that since the business class cabin was larger.

      I think the new configuration was with a capacity for 304 passengers, the old being 271. DC10 cabin is wider compared to the A330, and ARB has a configuration for 257 pax.

      4th December 1995 was when YU-AMB went to Rome for that D check, returning back, as you mentioned, with a new configuration on the 20th February 1996.

    7. Hi there! When JAT DC-10 joined the fleet, capacity was 282 seats, in two class configuration, 16 First class and 266 Economy. Such configuration remained for about 5-6 years, while there were only two DC-10 units in the fleet. With the introduction of the Adriatic Club Class, and with the start of serious growth on long haul, configuration was changed to 271, where 36 were Premium Business (Adriatic Club) Class, and 235 in Economy.

    I'm glad they stuck to it and that the route stayed part of the network. Good luck JU.

    Could profitability been achieved sooner if the airline used a newer generation aircraft with lower operational costs. The B787 or the A350-900?

      The sheer cost of leasing a 787 or A359 would far exceed any savings made on operational costs.

  28. Ocigledno je da se Er Srbija odrzala jedninim Erbasovim A330 avionom. Upornost i posvecenost uvek je preduslov rastu. Ako bi Er Srbija bila u moci da uzme u zakup nekoliko
    Erbasovih A321 ULR, kada budu dostupni na trzistu. Bilo bi veoma korisno za prekomorske letove. Kada bi se ovi avioni proizvodili i u kombi verziji, i oni bi mogli biti u opticaju za ovu kompaniju. Daljina doleta, ekonomicnost i broj putnika bi pomogli za sezonske oscilacije. Kao i pogodnost za za manje avio kompanije poput Er Srbije.Buducnost ce pokazati dali ce ovi avioni poletati sa buduceg haba Srbije,

      A321XLR was launched 3 years ago, so there have been plenty of opportunities for JU to order it, if they wanted.

      Certifying a new combi aircraft with modern fire protection regulations is nearly impossible.
