Flights Set to Begin in June between Belgrade and Portoroz
Regular flights between the Serbian capital of Belgrade and the Slovenian coastal resort of Portoroz look set to begin in early June, Ljubo Milic, the director of Aerodrom Portoroz, told the press on Thursday, 5 April.
According to Milic, Aerodrom Portoroz, the company that manages the small tourist airport, is in talks with Serbian flag carrier JAT that is to operate flights with a 50-seat ATR 72 plane. Talks are also underway for extending the plane's route to Rome.
Milic expects the weekly flight to bring more demanding Serbian tourists to Slovenia. He also wants the small international airport that he said operated in line with Schengen standards to become a passenger airport.
Milic added that a regular link between Belgrade and Portoroz existed in 1988 and 1989. JAT will be the first carrier after several years to commence regular flights to and from Portoroz.
He moreover said that a good season with 12 flights from Belgrade could present a basis for successful future cooperation.
