The national carrier of Bosnia and Herzegovina would operate the flights 6 times per week. The service would not operate on Saturdays.

B&H will go head to head with Jat Airways on this route. B&H Airlines code shares on Jat’s Sarajevo service. As a result, Jat will also code share on B&H’s flights. The Serbian national carrier also operates flights to Sarajevo everyday with the exception of Fridays. To make the competition even more interesting, both airlines will be using their ATR72s on the route. In February, Jat recorded a 14% drop in passenger numbers on the Sarajevo round trip service compared to February 2009.
