Air Montenegro inaugurated seasonal flights between Tivat and Baku last Friday, becoming the only flag carrier from the former Yugoslavia to serve the Caucasus nation on a scheduled basis. Flights will be maintained twice per week until September 30, on Mondays and Fridays, with the Embraer E195 aircraft. Air Montenegro will compete directly against Azerbaijan Airlines, which has increased its operations to Tivat this summer. "We believe that the introduction of this service will have a positive impact on both tourism and economic cooperation between our two countries. It is expected that the nonstop service between Tivat and Baku will significantly increase the number of tourists from Azerbaijan and stimulate additional investments from that market in Montenegro. This route will strengthen the ties between the two countries and provide an additional boost to the tourism sector in Montenegro, attracting visitors from Azerbaijan who want to explore the rich cultural and natural heritage of Montenegro”, Maja Bijelić, Air Montenegro’s Public Relations and Communications Manager, said.
Baku
Tivat
Montenegro keeps winning!
ReplyDeleteGood news for 4O after a rather disappointing March and April. Hopefully it goes uphill from here
ReplyDeletePassive aggression.
DeleteAir Montenegro also starts RDO in June.
ReplyDeleteNice. Baku sounds to me as a no-brainer route from Belgrade too, at least seasonal...
ReplyDeleteWelcome back Russians !!
ReplyDelete+1
Delete+100 we miss you best tourists ever...
DeleteMaybe now the Montenegrin government will make Azerbejzan Airlines stop the flights to Tivat so that 4O can make success just like they did with Pegasus from SAW.
ReplyDeleteBut prices are lowered when there's competition
DeleteI was on Friday at Tivat airport. There were just a few passengers to Baku. LF was under 50%.
ReplyDeleteVery high ticket prices could be the reason, it starts from 350 EUR one way
DeleteThe reason is that these flights are for tour operators. Of course that the first flight in the direction of Baku is empty because there are no groups to return back home.
