Dragi gosti,
Dear Guests,
Godina 2016. bila je puna rekorda za Er Srbiju. U našu flotu stigao je erbas A330 i počeli smo da letimo do Njujorka, čime je naša kompa- nija postala jedina u jugoistočnoj Evropi koja pokriva ovu destinaciju. U novu godinu ulazimo u velikom stilu sa impresivnim planovima koje tek treba da ostvarimo. U 2017. obeležićemo 90. godišnjicu naše nacionalne avio-kompa- nije, koja je osnovana kao Aeroput davne 1927. godine. To ce biti pri- lika ne samo da slavimo istoriju, već i neverovatno putovanje na ko- je smo se otisnuli kao Er Srbija. Za svega tri godine postali smo vodeći avio-prevoznik u regionu, ali se tu nećemo zaustaviti. Vazdušni saobraćaj je evoluirao do neprepoznatljivosti tokom po- slednjih devet decenija. Davno su prošli dani kada smo karte morali da kupimo lično ili da gledamo samo jedan film na displeju. Danas može- mo da gledamo filmove i TV emisije, te da slušamo muziku na strimin- gu tokom leta pomoću naše besplatne usluge Elevate Play. Možemo da se konektujemo na internet na visini od 10.000 metara ili kupimo kartu na internetu za samo nekoliko minuta. A planiramo da ove godine učinimo još ne- koliko koraka dalje… U aprilu, dakle za samo četiri meseca, Er Srbija ce preći na Sabre, najmoderniji IT sistem. Ovaj projekat predstavlja ogroman tehnološki napredak i nadogradiće naše usluge u svakoj tački putovanja, od početka do kraja. U Novu godinu ulazimo sa impresivnim planovima Na primer, ako presedate na neki od naših kod-šer letova na Ae- rodromu Nikola Tesla, prelazak na Sabre sistem omogućiće nam da efi- kasnije organizujemo vaš tranzit i obezbedimo vam besprekornu uslu- gu. Mnoge od članica Etihad ervejz partners takođe koriste Sabre, pa će naši sistemi bolje funkcionisati i razmenjivati važne informacije o va- šem putovanju. Kada govorimo o kod-šer letovima, ovo izdanje magazina Elevate stavlja akcenat na Abu Dabi, veliki centar u našoj mreži, odakle Etihad ervejzom letimo do 23 grada. Prestonica Ujedinjenih Arapskih Emirata je fascinantno mesto na kojem ćete male arapske bazare naći u podnož- ju moćnih nebodera, mesto na kojem se mešaju vekovna tradicija i mo- derna dostignuća. Er Srbija za Abu Dabi leti svakodnevno iz Beograda, a usluga je upotpunjena letovima Etihada, koji iz Beograda takođe leti svakog dana. Želim vam srecnu i uspešnu godinu koja je pred nama i zahvaljujem što letite Er Srbijom. Svima koji slave Božic i Novu godinu u januaru, po julijanskom kalendaru, želim da uživaju u praznicima i da lepe trenutke podele sa porodicom i prijateljima.
2016 was a year for the record books at Air Serbia. We wel- comed an Airbus A330 into our fleet and began flying non-stop to New York – the only airline based in Southeast Europe to do so. As we enter the New Year, we have similarly impressive plans in front of us. In 2017, we will mark the 90 th anniversary of our national airline, which was founded as Aeroput all the way back in 1927. It will be a chance to not only celebrate our history, but the incredible journey we have undertaken with Air Serbia. In just three years we have be- come the leading airline in the region, and we’re not stopping here. Air travel has evolved beyond recognition during the last nine decades. Gone are the days of having to buy a ticket in person or having one film playing on an overhead screen. Today, you can stream films, TV shows and music during a flight through our free El-
evate Play service, connect to the internet at 30,000 feet, or book a ticket on the web in minutes. Our plan is to go a step further in this di- rection this year. In April, just four months from now, Air Serbia will migrate to Sabre, a high-tech IT system. This project is one of our biggest technology upgrades in years and will rev- olutionise the services we offer, at every touchpoint in your journey.
As we enter the New Year, we have impressive plans in front of us
For example, if you are connecting to one of our codeshare flights at Nikola Tesla Airport, our switch to Sabre will allow us to more efficiently manage your transit, ensuring the experience is seamless. Many of the Etihad Airways Partner airlines also use Sabre and our systems will now better communicate and share messages about your journey. Speaking of codeshare flights, this edition of Elevate puts the spotlight on Abu Dhabi, a major hub in our network from where we offer connections to 23 cities with Etihad Airways. Abu Dhabi is a fascinating place where traditional souks sit beside the tallest sky- scrapers, mixing centuries-old tradition with modernity. We fly there daily from Belgrade and this is complemented by a daily service operated by Etihad Airways. I wish you a happy and successful year ahead and thank you for flying with Air Serbia. To everyone celebrating Orthodox Christmas and New Year in January, I hope you enjoy the festivities and good times with family and friends.
