Free taxi ride for Jat passengers soon
Serbia’s Jat Airways will become the first airline in the world to offer a free taxi service to Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport for all of its return ticket passengers. The news comes after the Serbian tender regulator found no misconduct in the tender procedure which began in November 2009 but came to a halt in December. The tender, which called on taxi companies to hand in their offers, was put on hold after a Belgrade taxi company cried foul, saying that the tender was being fixed. Two companies have applied for Jat’s “taxi revolution”, the Tanjug news agency reports. The taxi syndicate “Nezavisnost” and a joint bid by “Belgrade Taxis” and “Business Taxi” has been approved by the regulator.The taxi service can be used by all Jat Airways passengers with a return ticket. The taxis will transport passengers to and from Nikola Tesla Airport to any location within Serbia’s capital city. The airline’s vice CEO Vlada Ognjenović said that this is the latest in a string of new services that Jat Airways is offering its passengers in a bid to improve its results. Starting with the 2010 summer season, all Serbian citizens flying with Jat will also receive free travel insurance of up to 5.000 Euros.
