Meanwhile, Air Serbia is examining its options for fleet renewal.
The airline is in need of new aircraft for two reasons.
Firstly, Air Serbia is undergoing a significant network expansion.
After it launched 21 new routes last year, this year it plans to launch another 10.
Thus, it requires additional capacity.
Secondly, Air Serbia has a pressing need to replace its existing capacity.
The airline has one of the oldest fleets of any national airline in Europe.
The average age of Air Serbia aircraft is 18 years, according to airfleets.net.
In its fleet are four Boeing 737 aircraft that are 34 years old and six ATR 72 aircraft that are over 24 years old.
Even its Airbus A319 and A320 aircraft are on average 18 years old.
