Air Serbia commences direct flights to Kraków and Varna
05 June 2023
Last evening, with flight JU638, Air Serbia commenced direct flights between Belgrade and Krakow and last night, with flight JU136, a seasonal line between Belgrade and Varna. The national airline will fly to the city on the Vistula River in Poland four times a week, every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday. Air Serbia will fly to the city in Bulgaria four times a week as well, on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays.
The inaugural flights received an official welcome at John Paul II Airport, located 11 kilometres west from the centre of Kraków, and at Varna Airport, located only seven kilometres from the centre of that city.
“Tourists who love exploring European metropolises will definitely be pleased by our new scheduled flights to Kraków. Now they have the opportunity to arrive in one of the oldest cities in Poland in just two hours on comfortable Air Serbia airplanes. Neighbouring Bulgaria also offers many interesting vacation spots. One that stands out is Varna, often called the "sea capital of Bulgaria". We will be flying to the city on the Black Sea throughout the summer season. Maybe our direct flights between Belgrade and Varna will prompt travellers to opt for this Bulgarian city when choosing their holiday destination,” said Boško Rupić, General Manager Commercial and Strategy, Air Serbia.
During your stay in Krakow, do not miss the imposing gothic domes of St. Mary’s Basilica, or Rynek Główny, the biggest medieval square in Europe. Make sure to buy some souvenirs at the old Cloth Hall shopping mall, often claimed to be the oldest in the world, and try traditional sausages and home-brewed beverages at one of the bars or restaurants. Above the old town is the Town Hall Tower, which dates back to the 15th century and provides an amazing panoramic view.
Passengers will have excellent connections from Kraków, via Belgrade, with Ankara, Athens, Bucharest, Istanbul, Larnaca, Ljubljana, Naples, Podgorica, Rome, Sofia, Thessaloniki, Tivat, Zagreb and other cities in the Air Serbia network.
The largest city in northeastern Bulgaria, Varna, is located on the coast of the Black Sea and Lake Varna. In addition to numerous cultural landmarks, a special curiosity is the fact that the oldest processed gold in the world is kept in the Archaeological Museum of the city. The Varna region is known for its clean sea, fine sand, and pleasant climate.
From Varna, via Belgrade, passengers will have good connectivity to a large number of destinations in the network of Air Serbia, such as Amsterdam, Vienna, Berlin, Bologna, Zurich, Düsseldorf, Frankfurt, Hamburg, Copenhagen, Ljubljana, New York, Oslo, Podgorica, Prague, Rome, Venice, and Zagreb.
