Air Serbia temporarily suspends three routes until 2021
Air Serbia will temporarily suspend its year-round flights to Madrid and Kiev, as well as its seasonal service to Nice, until the 2021 summer season due to travel restrictions and falling demand. Operations to the Spanish capital will be discontinued from July 29, to Nice from August 8 and to Kiev from August 31. Furthermore, the planned resumption of several destinations has been postponed by a few weeks, while frequencies to several cities will be reduced. The carrier intends on restoring operations to Rome, Milan and Bucharest on August 16 instead of August 1, as initially planned. In addition, the Serbian national airline plans to resume flights to Brussels following a break, on August 27, while services to Venice will start on August 31. Flights to Moscow and Tel Aviv, which were originally to be restored in August, have now been pushed back to September 1.
All affected passengers will be informed about changes to the schedule and their new travel options. Air Serbia previously discontinued its flights to Helsinki, Malta, Cairo, Beirut and Rijeka and cancelled plans to launch operations to Lviv, Amman, Florence, Chisinau, Rostov on Don and Geneva, Last week, the carrier added a new destination to its network - a two weekly service to Oslo. “Due to the coronavirus pandemic and re-introduced flight bans and travel restrictions, we have been forced to further adjust our destination network in the coming period”, the company said in a statement.
In a bid to attract travellers, Air Serbia has introduced a new service following its “Keep Boarding” program. The carrier has now launched “Flight Pass”, which allows for passengers to purchase multiple tickets up front with savings up to 50% for a group of prepaid flights. The new concept permits the purchase of a minimum of four tickets up front with a set price and destination, which can be used at whatever time. The Flight Pass can also be shared with family members and friends and can be paid in installments. Air Serbia’s Head of Passenger Service System and Distribution, Zoran Rodasavljević, said, “The needs of our passengers represent the priority that guides our operations, so we wanted to let them have the freedom to create their own offer which works for them the best. By purchasing multiple passes, they can enjoy a greater discount. As has been the case so far, we will continue to work on always offering more to our passengers and creating added value for them”.
