Air Serbia has signed an agreement to lease a Bombardier CRJ-900 aircraft from Adria Airways to support its growing network. The aircraft, which is configured with 86 seats and will be leased between the busy summer months of June and September 2016, will allow Air Serbia to expand its flight network with non-stop flights Kiev in Ukraine. Tickets for Kiev services are on sale from today.
In addition, the aircraft will be deployed on the existing Belgrade – Sofia route, which is currently operated on an ATR turboprop, increasing seat capacity from 66 to 86 seats and will allow Air Serbia to expand its flight network with non-stop flights to Hamburg in Germany.
“The Bombardier CRJ-900 aircraft offers excellent performance and passenger comfort levels, and is a great match for our planned network expansion to two popular European cities this summer holiday season. Whether flying to Hamburg, which lies on the river Elbe and has a rich maritime heritage, or travelling to the richly cultural cities of Kiev or Sofia, our guests are sure to have a memorable experience with Air Serbia this summer. This arrangement with Adria Airways is a perfect example of the growth opportunities that can be created when small, like-minded airlines work together for a mutually beneficial outcome.”
