easyJet will temporarily suspend operations between Paris Charles de Gaulle and Belgrade, which will include the peak of the ongoing summer season. The low cost carrier plans to operate its final flight on the route on July 26, with services set to resume at the start of the 2026/27 winter season on October 26. Flights will then be suspended again throughout January 2027 before resuming in February. The move follows a previous pause in operations on the route earlier this year, from January 9 until February 6. easyJet currently maintains two weekly flights between the two capitals, competing directly against Air Serbia, which runs two daily services.
easyJet introduced flights between the two cities on October 27, complementing its existing Geneva service. Air Serbia quickly responded by lowering fares to match those offered by easyJet and announcing plans to increase frequencies on the route to sixteen weekly flights during the winter season. However, the Serbian carrier eventually shelved most of the planned increase, except during the New Year and Christmas holiday period. It will now operate without direct competition on the route for much of the summer season, with Wizz Air maintaining service to Beauvais, which is over a hundred kilometres from central Paris.
Paris is one of Belgrade Airport’s busiest routes, although foreign carriers have struggled to gain a foothold in the market over the past decade. In 2019, Air France resumed flights between the two cities after a ten-year hiatus. However, its return proved short-lived, with the airline maintaining only seasonal operations before discontinuing the service altogether following the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic. That same year, ASL Airlines France also launched flights between Paris and Belgrade but similarly withdrew after the summer season. In 2025, Transavia France planned to introduce operations to the Serbian capital from Orly Airport but shelved the route after issues emerged involving Belgrade Airport’s then fuel supplier, which had been sanctioned by US authorities.
Air France and Air Serbia currently maintain an extensive codeshare partnership. This summer, Air France has placed its flight number and designator code on Air Serbia-operated services from Belgrade to Paris, as well as to Larnaca, Nice, Ohrid, Sarajevo, Thessaloniki, Skopje, Sofia, Podgorica, Tirana and Tivat. In return, Air Serbia codeshares on Air France-operated flights from Paris to Dublin, Lyon, Marseille and Nantes.
