Air Serbia welcomed a record 252.509 travellers in April, representing an increase of 53% on the pre-pandemic 2019 and up 84% on last year. The carrier operated a total of 3.167 flights during the month up 35% and 66% on 2019 and 2022 respectively. Over the first four months of the year, the Serbian airline handled 907.468 passengers. "During ten consecutive months, from July 2022 to April 2023, our company has been achieving record results on a monthly basis in terms of the number of carried passengers and the number of flights operated. Considering that the summer season in the aviation industry is underway and that many tourist destinations are becoming more active, we believe that the results will be even better. In April, we expanded our network with as many as five new destinations and we are continuing this growth trend in May”, the carrier’s General Manager for Commercial and Strategy, Boško Rupić, said. The Serbian carrier has seen its leisure routes perform strongly and as a result is increasing frequencies on select destinations in Spain. From mid-June, the carrier will add an additional weekly rotation from Belgrade to both Malaga and Valencia. Services to Malaga, launched in mid-December last year, will run three times per week, instead of the initially planned two weekly, from Tuesday June 13, alongside flights on Thursdays and Sundays. Similarly, services to Valencia, inaugurated in April of last year, will be increased from two to three weekly from June 13, accompanying the Thursday and Sunday flights. The Serbian carrier has previously increased operations to both Madrid and Barcelona, which are being maintained up to three and nine times per week respectively. Air Serbia also maintains seasonal flights to Palma in Spain, which resume on June 3 with three weekly rotations. On the other hand, the airline recently discontinued ticket sales for its seasonal service between Belgrade and Trieste. Although tickets were put into circulation for this summer just over a month ago, with two weekly rotations having been scheduled to resume on June 3, sales have now been discontinued. Passengers who had had booked flights on the route have begun receiving e-mails about their cancellation.
