Air Serbia, the national airline of the Republic of Serbia, announced Friday the launch of a double daily service between Zagreb with Belgrade starting today.
To celebrate the occasion, Air Serbia is offering special fares for return flights in economy class from Zagreb to 14 destinations on its network. Fares for return flights between Zagreb and Belgrade start from 79 euros(98 U.S. dollars), Air Serbia said in a news release.
Director of Air Serbia Dane Kondic told Xinhua Thursday that "we are in the middle of some discussions around making some code share relationship with Air China."
"We don't have wide-body aircraft, so we look for opportunity to work and to partner with some Chinese carrier, or other airlines from Asia," he said, explaining why there is no direct flight between Belgrade and Beijing.
"We are always open to look for areas of further cooperation with our Chinese brothers," he said, revealing that he will visit China in the first quarter of 2015 to meet representatives of the civil aviation, banks, airlines and airplane manufacturers. (1 euro = 1. 24 U.S. dollars)
