About Air Serbia
Air Serbia (IATA: JU) is the national flag carrier of Serbia, rebranded in 2013 from the former JAT Airways as part of a strategic partnership with Etihad Airways, which holds a minority equity stake in the airline. Operating from its sole hub at Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport (BEG), Air Serbia has grown into a network carrier with an unusually broad reach for an airline of its size.
Air Serbia's route map spans an extensive list of European cities alongside long-haul non-stop service to New York JFK and Chicago O'Hare — long-haul routes largely enabled by its Etihad partnership and codeshare cooperation. Air Serbia is not a member of a global alliance, but it offers convenient connections across its Belgrade hub for travelers across the Balkans and Central Europe. FareOptic compares Air Serbia fares to help you find the best JU ticket price.

What is Air Serbia and how does it relate to JAT Airways?
Air Serbia (IATA: JU) is Serbia's flag carrier, rebranded in 2013 from the former JAT Airways following a strategic partnership with Etihad Airways. It operates from a single hub at Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport (BEG), serving destinations across Europe as well as long-haul routes to North America.

No, Air Serbia is not a member of Star Alliance, Oneworld, or SkyTeam. However, Etihad Airways holds a minority equity stake in Air Serbia and the two carriers maintain a close commercial and codeshare partnership that has helped Air Serbia expand its long-haul network.
Which long-haul routes does Air Serbia operate?
Air Serbia operates non-stop flights from Belgrade to New York JFK and Chicago O'Hare (ORD) — an unusually long-haul-heavy network for an airline of Air Serbia's size, made possible in large part by its partnership with Etihad Airways.

From its Belgrade hub, Air Serbia serves an extensive list of European cities including London Heathrow, Frankfurt, Vienna, Paris, Rome, and Istanbul, along with many other regional and Western European points.
Does Air Serbia operate domestic flights within Serbia?

What cabin classes does Air Serbia offer?
Air Serbia offers Economy and Business Class. Business Class is available on both short-haul European routes and long-haul A330 flights to the United States, with a more comfortable seat and enhanced dining on the long-haul product.
