PEARL OF THE ADRIATIC WITHIN EASY REACH The authentic and irresistible Bari awaits you On the southern heel of Italy, at the heart of the Apulia region, sits a coastal city that wins over travellers thanks to its unique charm, rich history and chilled Mediterranean rhythm F rom baroque squares and Romanesque church- es, via picturesque old town streets, all the way to beaches lapped
“In our efforts to offer passengers more travel opportunities, we will al- so operate flights to this popular Ital- ian city during the winter months. The decision to introduce year-round traffic is a result of great interest among passengers and the excellent results recorded on this route since its launch. Air Serbia is thus further fortifying its presence on the Ital- ian market, which is one of the most important for our network. Travel- lers from Serbia and the region can – both now and during the winter sea- son – reach southern Italy quickly and easily, while travellers from Ita- ly have a unique opportunity – thanks to a carefully crafted flight schedule – to spend several unforgettable days in Belgrade, discovering its charms, especially during the New Year holi- days,” says Bojan Aranđelović, Air Ser- bia senior manager for flight schedule planning and optimisation. Bari is a magical and inspiring city in its own right, but is also the ide- al springboard for exploring the most beautiful parts of Apulia, a region known worldwide for its unique ar- chitecture, vineyards and olive groves. Just an hour’s drive from Bari is the picturesque Alberobello, with its fa- mous trulli houses, then the romantic Polignano a Mare, which rises dramat- ically above the cliffs of the Adriat- ic, but also the baroque city of Lecce, known as the “Florence of the South”. Whether you’re seeking history, gastronomy or natural beauty, or sim- ply want to indulge in the Italian spir- it of dolce far niente, Bari and Apulia represent the right choice. Take ad- vantage of Air Serbia’s four weekly flights and embark on a journey that will leave you inspired, relaxed and enriched.
by turquoise waters, this city offers everything you need for an ideal sum- mer break. If you thought we were de- scribing Bari – you’re right. Have you already visited the im- pressive Pontifical Basilica of Saint Nicholas, explored the Norman-Swa- bian Castle, strolled the picturesque promenade or cobblestone lanes where local grannies still make fresh pasta on their doorsteps? If you haven’t, now is the right time to do so – because Air Serbia has (in addition to its Monday, Thursday and Sunday flights) intro- duced an additional flight on Fridays as of 18 th July, thereby providing even more opportunities when it comes to planning the ideal holiday in south- ern Italy. “We are particularly pleased with the agreement reached with Air Serbia on the extending of flights for the next winter season as well. This is a strategic choice that corresponds fully with the desire to promote greater continuity in international tourist flows to Puglia, even beyond popular months for tour- ism. I would like to thank the Munici- pality of Bari for the support given to this initiative, which not only strength- ens the airport’s connectivity, but al- so the city‘s ability to encounter cer- tain segments of tourists, such as those linked to the importance of Saint Nich- olas. Bari has for centuries been a sym- bolic destination for countries that have an Orthodox tradition, especial- ly those in the Balkans, and this flight represents a tangible response to grow- ing demand,” said Antonio Maria Va- sile, chairman of Puglia airports.
Bari je sam po sebi čaroban i in- spirativan grad, ali i idealna pola- zna tačka za istraživanje najlepših delova Apulije, koja je širom sveta poznata po jedinstvenoj arhitektu- ri, vinogradima i maslinjacima. Na samo sat vremena vožnje od Bari- ja nalazi se slikoviti Alberobelo, sa svojim čuvenim truli kućicama, za- tim romantična Polinjano a Mare, koja se dramatično uzdiže nad liti- cama Jadrana, kao i barokni Leće, poznat i kao „Firenca juga“. Bilo da tragate za istorijom, ga- stronomijom, prirodnim lepotama ili jednostavno želite da se prepu- stite italijanskom „dolce far niente“ duhu, Bari i Apulija su pravi izbor. Iskoristite četiri nedeljne frekven- cije Er Srbije i krenite na putova- nje koje će vas inspirisati, opustiti i obogatiti.
