JAT never stopped serving Peking(Beijing) so thats why I forgot to mention it.
As for whether JAT is considering buying new aircraft…thats a bit moot:)
They recently placed an order for a couple(4-8?) of Airbus A319/320 aircraft, but cancelled it due to “lack of money”.
But only a couple of months later, news about Boeing building a large regional service center(where all Boeing airplanes operated in Eastern Europe will go to be serviced & repaired) right beside Belgrade Airport, appeared on Serbian government websites.
So, we can only guess what this means:D
Personally, im guessing that if this new line to New York succeeds, they will buy a couple of wide-body aircraft, probably B767, to service such cities as New York, LA, Chicago and Toronto – where a large number of Serbians and other ex-Yugo’s live.
yes dry leasing a couple of 767s will do JAT good.
