Air Serbia has carried four million passengers since beginning of 2024

BELGRADE - On Friday, Air Serbia carried its four millionth passenger since the beginning of 2024, the national airline said in a statement.

"This achievement was reached almost a month earlier than the previous record in 2023, when the four millionth passenger was recorded on December 13," it said.

"During the first ten and a half months of 2024, Air Serbia has realised a number of projects and activities aimed at further improving the services we provide to passengers.

We completed the renewal of our regional fleet, and our third wide-body Airbus A330-200, registered as YU-ARD and branded to promote EXPO 2027, has arrived. We continued expanding our network, launching flights to Guangzhou, Nice, and Mostar, and for 2025, we announced the introduction of direct flights between Belgrade and Shanghai, Ibiza, Mykonos, and Sardinia. Today, we also carried our four millionth passenger in 2024, which opens the possibility of finishing the year with a new record and exceeding the 4.19 million passengers we carried in 2023.

The New Year holidays are ahead, which are a time of relaxation for most people, but for us in aviation, it's a time of increased traffic intensity. I am confident that we will be ready for this period and the new year 2025," said Air Serbia CEO Jiri Marek.

"During the summer season, the national airline of the Republic of Serbia has operated flights to over 90 destinations across Europe, Asia, Africa, and North America. The company's fleet is one of the youngest in the region, consisting of three Airbus A330-200 aircraft, three Airbus A320-200 aircraft, ten Airbus A319-100 aircraft, ten ATR 72-600 aircraft, and one Embraer E-195 aircraft.

In addition to its hub at Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport, Air Serbia also operates from the Morava International Airport near Kraljevo and the Nis Constantine the Great Airport.

During the 50th annual awards ceremony for achievements in air traffic, held in Dubai in May 2024, Air Serbia was inducted into the Air Transport World (ATW) Hall of Fame," the statement also said.
