NEWS FLASH


The multi million euro upgrade of Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport is continuing to advance. Following the recent opening of the central processor, overhauled A wing and the opening of the inserted runway, work is now taking place on the redevelopment of the arrivals area, including passport control and the baggage claim hall. The construction of a new Dufry Main Store duty free, stretching over 3.760 square metres is also taking place, after which the so-called “Tesla Square” will become the 2.800 square metre central plaza, with renderings of the future interior pictured. Furthermore, new open-concept shops and food and beverage facilities are soon set to open in the check-in hall, which will give the area a more spacious feel. Work has also begun on the redevelopment of the main runway.

      Well, I was flying out of Mexico City airport (MEX) in late May this year, and there was no place to get drinking water. The trouble was that tap water in CDMX is not good for consumption any way. We ended up paying $6.5 US for a 500 ml bottle of water.

    This is actually good to hear. Seeing all the planned shop areas I was thinking how claustrophobic it will look all boxed in but makes more sense if they will be like an open concept.

      Most people check online nowadays, if not, they spend usually 15minutes waiting to check in and then they proceed to security, bars, restaurants, shops or to the gate directly and spend most of the time there.

      Liking or disliking is fine, but question was how the check in is essential? If all do it it doesn't mean it's has to be the same. Estetically, I would agree with you, but functionally I don't agree it is essential part of the airport.

      Functionally, if we have a unified check-in area and crowd management, we should not have low ceilings. AirSerbia is operating in waves, meaning all those people come at a certain point to the exact spot. So far, the new solution for check-in counters 100 and 200 implemented in BEG is the only one I have seen with low ceilings. The check-in area should have higher ceilings and be airy and spacious. It is not a matter of design but of space and air volume.

      I agree that the check in terminal was done cheaply. It is not the future of the airports. It does not look modern at all. Ceiling need to be triple the size. Floors are some cheap laminate. One bathroom in the entire checking A terminal? Has anyone seen airports in Istanbul? Singapore? Dubai? Who are we comparing us against? On another note, walking area that connects the gates is lacking moving walkways. This is essential for every newly built modern airport. This airport is only newly. Nothing modern about this airport. Sad.

    Talking of BEG, today Wizz was supposed to bring their 4th A321 which was scheduled to arrive from OTP at 6 and to operate BEG-DTM.
    Romanians kept in Bucharest as their plane broke down to they sent it to operate OTP-LTN and they cancelled DTM from BEG.

    Now let's see what they do with the rest of their schedule for today.

    I think filling the airport with central zone shops and restaurants + those in long C and A gates will be key. Central shopping area is very important for passengers and if they do a good job there it will even out some 'not so good parts' (low ceilings in the checking area). I hope they also redo fully baggage claim area and arrival passport control sections. So far so good. Not a Waaauuu effect on the architectural side, but to be honest much better improvement vs. old. So good job!

      Sincerely, I hope not! Serbia has so much of amazing food, tasty and delicious and also fit to be served is fast food as well as slow version, so I really don't understand the obsession with Walter and sarajevski ćevap. If we really want ćevap, can it be pazarski Which is much better? Or leskovački roštilj?!
