PODGORICA (Montenegro), July 4 (SeeNews) – Flag carrier Montenegro Airlines has said it carried a total of 166,375 passengers in the first five months of 2017, up 6% on the year, with 86,000 of them travelling on flights to and from Serbia's Belgrade.
"Under the summer flight schedule, Montenegro Airlines operates up to six flights a day to Podgorica and Tivat from Belgrade. We expect that in the period from June 1 to September 30, a total of 110,000 passengers will be transported on that route," the company said in a statement last week.
