This route will work this time around as Air Serbia has a really good network now and it can actually offer convenient connecting flights which was not the case with Jat Airways.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5263744212273266286.post-53631220323124099112014-01-04T23:23:27.740+01:002014-01-04T23:23:27.740+01:00Yeah, but SOF Dec 2013 figures are still not publi...Yeah, but SOF Dec 2013 figures are still not published.

Personally I was appalled with comments made by travel agents in BNX and I hope the general sentiment has changed since my last visit. From what I saw in BNX, there is a market potential, so political issues should be eliminated as soon as possible so that both airlines and passengers could benefit from the BNX market.Lentohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03108856304114826786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5263744212273266286.post-8353336169928390602014-01-04T17:36:43.476+01:002014-01-04T17:36:43.476+01:00@Anonymous at 5:20 PM

First you say that normal people could not care less who are they flying with, then you say that JA has its own passengers and JA wont be affected by JU. Those two are a bit contradictory if you ask me. Either they don't care about politics and fly with whoever brings better service, or JA has a stronghold of loyal passengers who are loyal to them. <br /><br />Can you explain a bit more please?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5263744212273266286.post-61682522472761760272014-01-04T17:20:54.079+01:002014-01-04T17:20:54.079+01:00I agree with everything above, although this polit...I agree with everything above, although this political note about how people from RS feel about JA is unnecessary. Not that it matters at all, I am Serb from Banja Luka ( I live in London) and people (I am talking about normal people, not brainwashed and not bothered with that political nonsense) couldn't care less who they fly with. Very true, JU delivers better product in the terms of connecting further and it is cheaper, but JA's route has its own ( I dare say regular) passengers on this route and I am pretty sure that nothing will be changed on this route for JA. I flew with JA (on ZRH-BNX-ZRH) and with JU BEG-BNX-BEG), no complaints at all. JA is a small company and their crew was pretty good. Can't complain about their service at all. I would take this opportunity to congratulate to BEG (because that is today's topic) but also to other ex YU airport on brilliant achievements in 2013. I am hoping and wishing that we shall se more routes, airlines and passengers in EX YU. Fingers crossed for other small airports OSI, INI, POW, BWK, OMO, MBX and I hope we are going to see what has happened to the similar airports in Europe which they were underused before but breaking all records for the last few years.
