Air Serbia to Relaunch Direct Flights to China on December 9

On December 9, Air Serbia will launch direct flights between Belgrade and Tianjin, the fourth largest city in the People’s Republic of China, the national airline announced.

Due to current COVID-19 limitations, there will be one flight a week between the two cities, specifically, there will be a flight from Belgrade to Tianjin on Fridays, while the return flight from the largest port city in north China to the Serbian capital will be operated on Sundays. The national carrier is re-establishing direct flights to China after 22 years, since October 2000, when JAT operated its last flight to Beijing, the press release says.

It is added that, at the moment, Air Serbia will be the only European airline flying from Tianjin, and one of few European carriers operating direct flights to China.

An Airbus A330 from Air Serbia’s long-haul fleet will be deployed on the Belgrade-Tianjin route, and the average duration of flight is 10 hours from Belgrade to Tianjin and 12 hours from Tianjin to Belgrade.

Tickets for Belgrade-Tianjin flights are already available, with fares starting from EUR 649 and EUR 1,086 for a one-way and round-trip flight, respectively, with all fees included.

– By launching a direct service to China, Air Serbia will ensure good connections via Belgrade to numerous destinations in its network, such as Amsterdam, Barcelona, Oslo, Paris, Stockholm, Frankfurt, Ljubljana, Valencia, Prague, Venice, Zagreb and other destinations throughout Europe and in the wider Balkans region – the press release says.

It is also said that the most reliable information regarding travel to the People’s Republic of China and conditions for entering the country are available on the People’s Republic of China’s embassy’s website.
