NEWS FLASH
Air Serbia has today taken delivery of its fourth wide-body Airbus A330-200 aircraft. The jet, registered YU-ARE, is ten years old and was formerly operated by Etihad Airways and Air Belgium. It was in storage between 2019 and 2022. The aircraft arrived from Dusseldorf where it underwent maintenance over the past five months. The A330-200 has received Air Serbia’s EXPO 2027 decals. Similar to the third A330 delivered to Air Serbia last year, the plane features the Etihad cabins, including 22 business class seats in a 1-2-1 layout, and the remaining 240 in economy in a 2-4-2 configuration. The airline has also secured additional seats of the same type for any required replacements during its operation with the Serbian airline.
Can someone please tell me what their plans are with 4 planes? Ok, one will be kept as backup but with three A330 can we expect a new long-haul route or more frequencies on routes they already have?
ReplyDeleteIs Pupin going to get a new cabin and when?
All of your questions have already been answered.
DeleteThey said they are considering Beijing or adding frequencies to Shanghai or Guangzhou.
DeleteThey have said YU-ARB should undergo cabin replacement this year
Thank you Anon 13.53

ReplyDeleteBravo Air Serbia 🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸
ReplyDeleteHonestly super proud of JU accomplishment. They come from a small and not very rich country, however they build up an airline that is much better then some coming from EU where they are able to get much more financial help.
ReplyDeleteFinancial help in EU is illegal.
Delete^ sure it is

Or how Germany protects Lufthansa's interests.
DeleteSo, if someone else is doing that in the wrong way with public money - then it is ok to do it in your own country and be proud of company "accomplishment". Wow, great logic strikes.
DeleteNot at all, people were just responding to the false claim that "Financial help in EU is illegal." Read what was written before you have a meltdown.
DeleteSerbian government invested in its own business and so far it seems like the investment has paid off. Is JU perfect? God no. Are they better than Jat Airways? Yes, absolutely.
DeleteState aid is a problem when it is used to perpetually invest in a project that is going nowhere. Here the government used tax money to reform a business back in 2013 from which those same tax payers profited the most.
The whole thing with EU somehow protecting fair market competition in air traffic is such a charade when a single consortium (Lufthansa) is allowed to control Lufthansa, Austrian, Swiss, Brussels, and ITA. Just draw that catchment area on the map of Europe and it must be clear that any actual competition-protecting body would have at some point blocked these deals.
DeleteDon't forget Air Baltic which they are also buying.
