Serbia’s flag carrier, Air Serbia, has begun direct flights to Guangzhou in the People’s Republic of China from its primary hub at Belgrade. An Airbus A330-200 widebody jet will ferry passengers to and fro twice weekly on Mondays and Fridays. The inaugural flight – JU988 – took off from Belgrade at 00:20. It arrived at Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport, approximately 28km from the city centre. The airport is also the primary airport in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area.
The link to Guangzhou becomes the airline’s second direct service to mainland China. The first was to Tianjin, a service which recommenced in December 2022.
