This year, Air Montenegro has flown to markets such as Azerbaijan, the Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Italy, Armenia, Hungary, Germany, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia, Serbia, Switzerland and Turkey, enriching the air traffic options and facilitating easier travel for tourists from these regions to Montenegro.
“We are proud to highlight that the steady increase in passenger numbers reflects the trust our travelers place in us and speaks to the quality of our services. We are committed to enhancing our offerings and expanding our destinations, contributing to the further development of tourism and the Montenegrin economy,” said Air Montenegro representatives.
