Emil Delibašev, British Airways’ Regional Commercial Director, told journalists that this move marks a reinforced connection between London and Central Europe after a decade-long hiatus in Serbia.
Rooted in a rich history spanning over half a century, British Airways has connected the UK with Serbia since the 1950s. Initial flights commenced on the Belgrade-Zurich-London route in 1957. A direct Belgrade-London service was then established in 1970, with twice-weekly flights to Heathrow Airport. The airline, headquartered at London’s Heathrow and Gatwick airports, ranks as Europe’s second-largest carrier.
