Air Montenegro has expanded the global distribution of its flights through a new partnership with travel technology company Travelfusion. The agreement means the carrier’s fares and ancillary products can now be searched and booked by travel agencies, online travel providers and corporate booking platforms connected to Travelfusion through a single API. The development broadens Air Montenegro’s sales reach beyond its own direct channels and existing distribution partners, making its flights more readily available to travel sellers internationally and potentially generating additional bookings in overseas markets. Travelfusion connects directly with more than 400 low cost carriers and over seventy airlines through NDC integrations. No additional surcharge will be applied to Air Montenegro bookings made through the Travelfusion API.

They still do not seel connecting flights through TGD.
ReplyDeleteShame.
With YM it was possible.
Connect where? 🤣
DeleteConnections are available, like Mr Aljosche Wendholdt flew
DeleteNiksic and Berane.
DeleteOh that’s right, Aljoscha transferred with them, I hadn’t realised that until now.
DeleteFor those who are proud not to know... from FRA, CDG, FCO, ZRH to BEG.
DeleteNo, connections are not available. Try to book it on their web site.
DeleteSame-ticket connections/transfers are not available due to changes introduced at both Podgorica and Tivat airports several years ago, which have made it practically impossible to accommodate transfer passengers.
DeleteThanks Admin.
DeleteCould you please share with us what are the changes done there?
There have been changes made to passenger processing. There is no dedicated transfer channel allowing passengers to re-enter the departures area without formally entering the country, collecting any required baggage and passing through security again. As a result, the airports are effectively unable to accommodate conventional connecting or transfer passengers.
DeleteThanks.
DeleteJust for your information - I was transferring through TGD at the time YM was offering connecting flights and the situation was exactly the same as you described today...Although I was transfer passenger and arrived straight from the plane, I had to go through passport control (got even passport stamp) and through security area before entering departure hall.
Despite it YM was selling transfer flights through TGD and they were good alternative as their price was quite competitive especially for last minute purchased tickets.
BEG is really their business model.
