Air Serbia flights affected by catering supplier strike

NEWS FLASH


Air Serbia flights have been impacted after employees at its meal and beverage supplier Airport Belgrade Catering (ABC) went on strike today. ABC is wholly owned by the Emirati Cirta Group, a group of companies supported by government entity Khalifa Fund for Enterprise Development. In 2019, it won an eight-year deal to supply Air Serbia with its catering offer, which is renewable for a total of fifteen years. Employees at ABC say the catering company has defaulted on its obligations to pay their social and health insurance. “We are doing everything in our power to provide the necessary minimum catering services for our flights and to fully normalise services that have been affected by this strike as soon as possible”, Air Serbia said in a statement. The carrier apologised to passengers for the inconvenience caused by the strike of some of ABC’s employees. Up until 2019, Air Serbia had its own catering division. As part of the company’s measures to cut costs, it was absorbed by ABC.

    How in the name of allmighty does an engineering company with zero aviation experience, win a tender to manage airline catering services on a different continent?

    Speaking of catering, I think their prices have increased and now are similar to Ryanair or Wizzair. I mean €3,50 for Serbian beer is a lot even though it is served way up high in the sky and 2 rakias plus small chips for €10 is also not cheap at all. I guess inflation has hit many parts of Europe

      I think their prices are fair and very good. I don't know why there is this narativne "3.5€ for Serbiain beer"?! So, being Serbiain it should be cheap and been foreign expensive?! And anyway, both are made in Serbia?!
      When we learn to appreciate ours rather than foreign, our economy will be much better.

      As far as I can see for some products (water, coffee, plazma...) prices are not changed.

      You can get even less on Lufthansa/Swiss flights - bottle of water and extremely small bite of chocolate

      Fly with Qatar/Turkish and you will get a decent meal if you don't like Iva or VodaVoda 0.2L and 20g of chips
