“In the year in which we are celebrating a decade of operations under the Air Serbia name, we have set high goals for ourselves. Month by month, we have successfully achieved and exceeded our records in terms of passenger numbers and flights operated. This trend continued in September when, for the first time in the history of Air Serbia, we reached more than 3 million passengers carried in one year. We will continue at the same pace in the months ahead, and in addition to strengthening our capacity, our biggest focus is to constantly raise our service quality. Last weekend, we opened a new office in the Galerija Shopping Mall, and we have prepared a series of activities for the upcoming period, which we believe will delight our passengers,” said Jiri Marek, CEO of Air Serbia.
