NEWS FLASH
Air Serbia has operated its first ever nonstop service between Belgrade and Tokyo Narita Airport, albeit an adhoc charter, to transport representatives from 160 Japanese companies who will hold talks with the Serbian government and business stakeholders in Belgrade this week. Although the carrier initially scheduled to deploy its Airbus A330-200 aircraft registered YU-ARB to operate the flight, a last minute change saw its other jet of the same type, registered YU-ARC, run the service. Air Serbia will operate a second flight to Narita Airport, to carry the business delegation back to the Japanese capital, on October 18. The outbound leg from Belgrade, which only had crew onboard, took 12 hours and 4 minutes, while the inbound service, currently en route, is estimated to take some 13 hours and 10 minutes.

That's a long flight
ReplyDeleteNot with the Pupin plane o.O
Delete@15:34 LOL, so true!
DeleteImaging getting used to immaculate Japanese carriers and then you end up on Pupin
ReplyDeleteLoving the negativity bro.
DeleteNot negativity but rather facts.
DeleteStill funny how an aviation forum is somehow the most negative about aviation
DeleteIf given the opportunity, negative ones would be first in line to fly nonstop Belgrade-Tokyo.
Delete@15:35 for free, sure! Paying your own money though would make one start looking into what is getting. A LHG, TK, QR, EK, EY connecting flight or the pleasure of flying on Pupin?
DeleteNonstop above all
DeleteIt's not negativity if it's true, those are facts. Air Serbia should not have a plane in such a bad shape!
DeleteIt is hate more than just negativity
DeleteIt's facts, if you don't believe me read the recent trip report to CAN.
DeleteAdmin, do you know when the E95 is supposed to enter service? Wasn't it these days?
It's also a fact that BEG has three times the jetbridges ZAG has. Fact: Air Serbia has grown destinations and passengers number far more than Croatia in the past ten year. Fact: BEG has US flights for more than 8 years, ZAG none. Yet no one brings up those facts daily as that would be pure hate. But you do bring up couple of partially functioning seats EVERY day, so that makes it a hate.
DeleteDude are you like a JU employee? I am literally from Serbia so I don't care about ZAG. I care about JU embarassing itself with so many foreigners flying on a plane that is falling apart. I am shocked you are ok with it.
DeleteIf you think IFE not working means plane is falling apart, you may need professional help.
Delete19:44 when the E95 is supposed to enter service?
DeleteAnother indication your comments are detached from reality. News article is about Air Serbia touching down in Tokyo. Your comments clearly point to hate.

DeleteI thik you need medical help, start by taking a Bromazepam.
This an aviation FORUM so it's natural to discuss things. Admin has access to a system which can tell us if there will be another delay. I am curious and I think many are too. You are just frustrated and it's not nice.
One of the great things about this site is that most visitors and their comments are knowledgeable and passionate about aviation so they not only contribute in a meaningful way but are also capable of keeping discussion on topic, shutting down haters, analiticars and those like you with facts and arguments. That's one of key distinctions between this and analiticar's site where those like you thrive.
Deleteto je onaj bez IFE i sa polomljenim sjedalima!
ReplyDeleteOT: Istekao je domen Analiticaru.
Why the change?
ReplyDeleteWhat is an issue with YU-ARD? Why hasn't started flying yet?
ReplyDeleteThey are waiting for analiticar to give approval 😆
Deletejk. I'm sure they are getting crew familiarity with plane and finishing documentation
Bravo Air Serbia 🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸
ReplyDeleteThis distance is similar to BEG-LAX, right?
ReplyDeleteLonger.
DeleteEmpty inbound? Why not sell a limited number of seats and have them return to Beg with the second flight?
ReplyDeleteExactly.
DeleteTo complex for 0 profit.
DeleteHow on earth you think it's possible to receive all permits and make all requests in couple of days to sell just like that tickets for commercial flight?
DeleteI love those photos! Interesting to see Air Serbia plane pictures from destinations where Air Serbia does not fly regular flights, such as LAX, YYZ and MNL.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately can't find videos of go-around.
Tourist Charters to Japan? Sometimes you can find 200 people to visit Japan, Rio De Janeiro and similar location.
ReplyDeleteRead the article before making a comment.
DeleteSometimes travel agencies should come up with similar ideas
DeleteI ‘ve red already and i know about plans to inaugurate flight to Tokyo and Seoul in next 2 years.
DeleteOnly I’ve tried to say, they can implement some new models of visiting new destinations, new markets in different way.
Slow season, you have just one flight to Chicago, but you can find people to visit India or any other location and just fly over there, so you don’t need to wait on Summer Season or you don’t need to wait 50 years to land in Tokyo.
JAT did some models before, around World flight.
Nice bird at nice airport.
ReplyDeleteThink it was a good adventure
