Air Serbia will add the third wide-body Airbus A330-200 aircraft to its fleet this summer and have it in operation by June or July, amid favorable leasing rates on the market.
Speaking at the New Air Gateway Conference in Ljubljana yesterday, Air Serbia’s CEO, Jiri Marek, said that they were doing final approval processes and that the aircraft might be in operation in June or July.
He added that A330 was a perfect plane for an airline of Air Serbia’s size:
– It is a very profitable machine, especially with the lease rates we have since Covid.
Air Serbia’s CEO had previously said the airline would first look to expand into China with the arrival of the third A330, to destinations such as Beijing and Shanghai, and later on in North America, with the likes of Miami and Toronto a possibility. The carrier will commence operations to Chicago this May.
