Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport handled some 923.000 passengers during the first quarter of the year, representing a decrease of 10.8% compared to the same period in 2019. In a statement, airport operator VINCI, said, “Belgrade Airport started the year with 16.1% growth in passenger numbers in January and 13.0% in February, boosted by the momentum of Air Serbia in international markets. The downturn in passenger numbers in March and the total closure of the airport to commercial flights decided by the government on March 19 explain the 10.8% decline over the entire first quarter”. The number of aircraft movements decreased by 8.9% during the same period. The operator did not provide individual figures for March. These will be made available in May.

In this very difficult climate, each of our airports can draw on unfailing support from our entire network to be stronger and more proactive facing the crisis and to better prepare, with all air sector stakeholders, the recovery when it comes”.
