This was my first booking and I used Alternative Airlines twice on this trip. I must say by far the best online booking experience ever.

So easy to use and the payment options are very helpful when you need to book a ticket and you may not have the full amount at the moment. Really recommend Alternative Airlines to my clients and friends.

What a great way to be able to see my family back in South Africa. This is made possible since we can buy our tickets and pay it off over 4 months. With the price of flight tickets so high Alternative Airlines has been a literal lifesaver!

News

Air Serbia's new route to New York

Air Serbia just launched its first trans-Atlantic service since 1992 from Belgrade to New York. In the short run, Air Serbia expects to serve nonstop passengers, however, they expect to serve more connecting passengers to its neighbour countries in the coming years.

After Etihad bought 49% of the company in 2013, they have not kept from making changes and restructuring. The name change and the lay off of almost half the staff of former JAT Airways was just the beginning. Corporate restructuring and a complete change in the company's values made a huge impact on their performance. Three years later, Air Serbia is set to add $1 billion to Serbia's economy and contribute with more than 100 thousand jobs.

Fleet

Jat Airways fleet consisted of the following aircraft:

  • ATR 72-202
  • ATR 72-500
  • Boeing 737-300
