Luxembourg’s national carrier Luxair will reduce operations across several markets in the former Yugoslavia this summer season, mainly impacting Tivat, Belgrade and Ljubljana. The carrier will decrease its number of flights by 21.7% compared to the 2024 summer season, while capacity will be slashed by 17.1%. Luxair plans to resume services to Tivat on April 19. With exception of the first week of operations, during Easter, when it will run two weekly services, the airline has reduced frequencies on the route to just one per week, on Tuesdays, for the remainder of the summer. Flights will also end earlier, concluding on September 30. Last year, the service was maintained twice per week. Luxair also once served Podgorica, however, the service was discontinued at the end of the 2023 summer season.

As previously reported, Luxair is discontinuing its seasonal flights to Belgrade. The airline initially planned to serve the route this summer twice per week from July 5 until August 30 with its Dash 8 Q400 turboprop aircraft. It introduced operations to the Serbian capital in 2021 on a year-round basis but has since consistently reduced operations on the route and downgraded flights to seasonal. On the other hand, the carrier plans to reduce service to the Slovenian capital by 10% during the summer by decreasing frequencies from two to one weekly during July, after which it will restore two weekly rotations in August.

Luxair’s service to Croatia remains unchanged this summer compared to last, with a total of four weekly flights to the country until the end of September. It will serve Dubrovnik twice per week, while Zadar and Brač will be operated weekly. All services to the former Yugoslav markets will be maintained by the 76-seat Dash 8s. Apart from previously serving Podgorica and Belgrade, the carrier also used to operate to Split. Furthermore, the airline used to maintain year-round operations to the Serbian, Montenegrin and Slovenian capitals but has over the years significantly reduced its network, with Ljubljana also becoming a seasonal route.
