Over the 2024 summer season, from March 31 until October 26, Air Montenegro plans to introduce four new routes and increase frequencies across its network. The carrier will commence services from Podgorica to Munich and Ostrava, while maintaining operations to Rome launched over the winter, as well as from Tivat to Baku and Izmir.
The airline will boost frequencies across the board, notably adding an additional daily rotation between Tivat and Belgrade during the peak summer period. Furthermore, the carrier will maintain services between Podgorica and Ljubljana throughout the summer season, unlike last year, when the route was paused for several months, during which flights were operated between Tivat and the Slovenian capital instead. Air Montenegro does not plan to restore services between Tivat and Banja Luka.
This upcoming summer season, Air Montenegro will operate two of its own Embraer E195 aircraft. It will also wet-lease an E190 jet from Ukraine's Windrose Airlines starting April 1, as well as an Airbus A320 aircraft from Croatia's Trade Air from late March. Furthermore, the Montenegrin flag carrier hopes to secure the dry-lease for an additional two Embraers, either the E190 or E195 or a combination of the two. A decision on the lease will be made next month when a tender for their procurement is concluded. This year, Air Montenegro is targeting passenger growth of 35% on last year's 480.000 travellers.
Please note that the changes listed below are preliminary and based on current availability in the Global Distribution System (GDS). Furthermore, the table below displays the peak weekly frequency on each route during the course of the summer season. Increases in frequencies on select routes may not come into effect until later on in the summer. A review of Air Serbia's and Croatia Airlines' summer season network will be published in the coming days.
