Air Serbia launches Geneva-Belgrade service
Air Serbia commenced a new service between Geneva and Belgrade on 1 March 2021. The airline is offering two weekly flights on the route on a year-round basis. Services operate each Monday and Friday using an A319 with a capacity of 144 seats.
Geneva was announced as one of six new destinations last year, but this plan was temporarily abandoned due to the coronavirus pandemic. “We are carefully monitoring all the changes in travel restrictions and demand, trying to act quickly and seize all the opportunities that open up on the market,” said Jiri Marek, General Manager Commercial and Strategy, Air Serbia.
