January 31 (SeeNews) - Flag carrier Air Serbia will introduce flights from Belgrade to the German cities of Hanover and Nuremberg, and to Salzburg in Austria, it said.
Flights to Hanover will start on June 3, Nuremberg flights will commence on June 6, while the first flight to Salzburg will be operated on June 7, the company said in a statement on Friday.
Air Serbia will fly to Hanover and Salzburg three times a week during the summer season, and twice a week during the winter period, the carrier added. Flights to Nuremberg will be operated twice a week, year-round.
"Historically, the German market has been always of a great importance for our airline. By launching routes to Hanover and Nuremberg, Air Serbia will furthermore strengthen its position in Germany, increase the country coverage and complement already existing services," the head of network planning and scheduling at Air Serbia, Bojan Arandjelovic, commented. "On the other hand, the introduction of flights to Salzburg confirms our commitment to improve connectivity between Serbia and Austria, which represents a significant market for our country due to the sizeable Serbian diaspora, but also offers great opportunities for city break and skiing holidays."
After the introduction of the new routes, the company will have eight destinations in Germany in its offer. Salzburg is the carrier's second destination in Austria.
