In the late 1980s, JAT introduced an inter-city bus service between Niš and Belgrade. Departing each morning at 05.15 from the Ambassador Hotel in Niš to Belgrade Airport. The luxury minibus transfer was included in JAT's reservation system and was treated like any other scheduled service. This meant passengers could enjoy newspapers, sandwiches, drinks and desserts on the three-hour drive up the motorway to Belgrade. This service was primarily intended for travellers on JAT's international network who could book the complimentary transfer. Those continuing on domestic flights had to pay an additional fee. The return service from Belgrade departed daily at 20.00 and passengers would be driven to the front door of their home within Niš or to the Ambassador Hotel
