PHOTOS: Belgrade - Rijeka resumes after 29 years

NEWS FLASH

Flights between Belgrade and Rijeka have resumed for the first time since August 1990. As part of its expansion, Air Serbia reintroduced flights between the two cities yesterday. The service will be maintained twice per week throughout the year with the ATR72 turboprop aircraft, while an Airbus A319 jet will be used during the peak summer months. Commenting on the new route, Rijeka Airport said, "The introduction of year-round scheduled flights represents a very important development for the Kvarner region, since it marks the resumption of operations after almost thirty years when there were two daily flights in the former nation. This route is also of great importance because it will operate throughout the year, which improves Rijeka Airport's sustainable development and reduces seasonality".
