NEWS FLASH
Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport handled some 256.000 passengers in November, representing a decrease of 39.7% on the same month in 2019. Commercial aircraft movements were down 18% over the same period. Between January and November, Belgrade Airport welcomed just over 3.01 million travellers through its doors, marking a decrease of 47.5% on the pre-pandemic 2019. Commercial aircraft movements decreased 31.6%. Belgrade Airport had initially targeted welcoming 2.9 million passengers this year.
BEG and SOF are virtually tied in the first 11 months of this year. Both airports handled 3.01 passengers so far. It depends what kind of December both airport will have.
ReplyDeleteBragging rights are at stake.
DeleteI wonder if Sofia will surpass Belgrade next year? Ryanair has expanded significantly in 2021.
DeleteSofia has more passengers than Belgrade pre-Covid.
DeleteIn the immediate pre-covid period, but before that BEG was stronger.
DeleteSOF

Delete"Wizz may be will start new greek routes"

+1
Delete+BEG Air Cairo to Sharm el Sheich
Bulgaria also have new airline "JET"-they plans to launch operations to holiday destinations with ATR72.
Anyone know what are the new routes starting this week from BEG and when do they start? Are some of them from tomrrow?
DeleteSofia : Bring it on sister (Belgrade)!!!! Hahahaha!
Delete69 departures from BEG tomorrow and what is interesting is that the three morning Wizz Air flights are all to existing destinations. New ones are in the afternoon.
DeleteYou literally have it on the right hand side of the site under "New route launches".
DeleteGullivAir not Jet!
Deletebeg.aero says they will have three A321 tomorrow, wasn't one supposed to be A320? HHN is currently on its way from BEG. Welcome.
DeleteSOF alwaysoutperforms BEG in winter because of ski reorts in its vicinity.
DeleteGreat results for BEG, their recovery is fast and most likely BEG will have 3,2-3,3 mil passengers at the end of the year !
ReplyDeleteI think 3.4 is possible. Luxair resumed flights today, Anadoloujet is coming from ESB soon and LO boosted BEG from 6 to 8 weekly. Things are looking good right now.
DeleteI wish LO would add overnight flights to BEG, would be cool to have connections to their morning wave where they have a lot of interesting destinations.
DeleteA look at the map probably says enough: it would not be attractive from an economical perspective for them, because of substantial backtracking to many European destinations. A better place to connect from this perspective is Vienna or Budapest.
DeleteYou can look at the map but then you should look at the list of their morning departures and there you will find destinations such as Moscow, Billund, Copenhagen, Hamburg, Stockholm, Berlin, Oslo... all which they could offer without much backtrack. Then again, if people are flying from BEG via IST to the US then I don't think they'll mind changing flights in WAW on their way to AMS, BRUS, CDG or even DUB.
DeleteGood results! But I am worried about W6. They are cutting many routes in winter across their network and also easyJet seems to be ceasing Berlin from January so I think January will be a weaker month.
ReplyDeleteW6 is suspending over 300 routes from middle of January from virtually every single base.
DeleteBecause of retarted EU imposed health restrictions...
DeleteYes, especially in Germany and UK and I don't understand why we have to have another agonising winter similar to 2020.
DeleteBravo Srbija!
