Air Serbia will launch a twice-weekly nonstop service between Belgrade and Miami on May 20, 2027, making Florida the carrier's third destination in the United States after New York JFK and Chicago O'Hare. Chief executive Jiri Marek confirmed the route, along with five further destinations, in an interview with Serbian broadcaster RTS on October 18, 2026.

The Miami service will become Air Serbia's fourth destination in North America when it starts, since the airline already serves Toronto-Pearson in Canada. Like the carrier's other long-haul routes, the Belgrade Nikola Tesla to Miami link will use Airbus A330-200 aircraft, of which Air Serbia currently operates four.

What does the expansion include?

The six new destinations, all scheduled for the 2027 Summer season, break down by aircraft type as follows:

  • Miami (MIA) — twice-weekly, Airbus A330-200
  • Yerevan (EVN), Armenia — Airbus A319
  • Minorca (MAH), Balearic Islands — Airbus A319
  • Cluj-Napoca (CLJ), Romania — ATR-72
  • Chisinau (RMO), Moldova — ATR-72
  • Helsinki (HEL), Finland — Embraer E195, a reinstatement of a route Air Serbia flew before the COVID-19 pandemic

The additions push Air Serbia close to the 100-destination mark, the result of a network expansion the airline has pursued over the past several years.

What aircraft will support the plan?

Fleet deliveries are modest but steady. Marek said Air Serbia will receive two additional Airbus A320-family aircraft and one more Embraer E-Jet during 2027. That follows the addition of one A320 and one E195 in 2026. The math is simple: three narrowbody arrivals against six new routes, most of them served by aircraft already on the property.

The four A330-200s carry the entire long-haul burden. One more transatlantic city pair on a fleet of four widebodies leaves little slack for schedule disruption, maintenance, or further North American growth.

How is the airline performing?

Traffic is moving in the right direction. Marek reported a year-on-year increase of roughly six percent in passengers carried over the first nine months of 2026. That is one new passenger for every seventeen carried in the same period a year earlier.

The chief executive expects 2026 to be the most successful year in the airline's history. The claim lands one year before Air Serbia marks its 100th anniversary in 2027 — a centenary the carrier plans to celebrate with a network near its symbolic triple-figure threshold.

The confidence is verifiable in part: six percent growth and a record 2026 are flying facts, while the Miami start date and the summer 2027 destinations remain promises until the first rotations depart. Watch the delivery schedule and the A330 fleet count; both will determine whether the centenary network materializes as drawn.
