BEG Belgrade

How deep the BEG board really is

The table above says where a courier can fly from BEG. This reads the same 117 destinations back for the questions a dispatcher asks second: how much of the board rests on one airline, how much of it runs less than daily, whether the return leg is as thick as the outbound, what the clock here does to a Gulf working day and which of the destinations shut at night, all of it computed on 2026-09-07 from AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics.

• 83of the 117 destinations are flown by one airline
• 68destinations run less than once a day
• 6destinations have four or more departures a day
• 74.4%of the destinations name Air Serbia, the largest presence here

Who holds the departures at BEG

30 airlines appear on the BEG board and they do not hold it evenly. Air Serbia is on 87 of the 117 destinations, 74.4 per cent of them, and on 55 of those it is the only airline flying the sector. The destinations it appears on carry 128.8 of the 151.5 departures a day this airport files, though other airlines fly some of the same sectors, so read that as reach rather than as a share of the aircraft.

The next largest presence is Wizz Air on 25 destinations. 22 of the 30 airlines at BEG appear on a single destination each, which is the long tail every airport carries, and none of it is a rebooking option when the sector you need is the one that fell over.

An airport held this tightly is quick to book and slow to recover: with 87 of the 117 destinations on one airline, the second aircraft on a BEG sector is usually another Air Serbia aircraft, and when there is not one the desk is looking at another airport rather than another airline. That is why the alternate airports listed above matter more at BEG than the destination count does.

How much of the BEG board is daily

Of the 117 destinations, 49 are flown at least once a day and 68 are not, 5 of them running once a week or less. The median destination on the BEG board is flown 5 times a week.

An average of 0.14 flights a day is the schedule statistic, and it is worth translating it before anything is promised to anybody: BEG to Preveza/Lefkada (PVK) is about one a week, so a missed departure there is not a delay of hours, it is the next slot.

The five busiest destinations carry 33.6 of the 151.5 departures a day, 22.2 per cent of the whole board. With 58.1 per cent of the 117 destinations running less than daily, this is a board that rewards booking the outbound before the collection is confirmed rather than after.

The ten destinations out of BEG where one airline holds the sector and files fewer than seven departures a week, with the weekly figure taken as the average daily rate multiplied by seven rather than as a fixed timetable. 50 further destinations sit in the same position and are listed in the board above.

The way back from BEG

The desk holds the return direction for 90 of the 117 destinations, and a courier plans the way back on those figures rather than on the outbound. On two of them the return into BEG runs thinner than the outbound by more than a quarter. The widest gaps are Istanbul (SAW) at 4 out a day against 1.4 back and Heraklion (HER) at 0.86 out a day against 0.57 back.

It runs the other way as well: Istanbul (IST) files 4.6 a day back into BEG against 3 outbound, which is the shape that strands a courier at this end rather than at the far end.

The clock at BEG

BEG keeps Europe/Belgrade time, two hours behind Dubai in summer and three hours behind in winter, because the clock here moves and the Gulf clock does not.

When it is 09:00 on a Dubai working morning it is 07:00 at BEG, so a nine to six day at each end overlaps for seven hours. That is wide enough to settle a customs question at BEG and still make a departure the same day.

The night at BEG

15 of the destinations from here carry a documented night restriction of their own, which is a departure time question at this end rather than an arrival problem at the other.

Into Zurich (ZRH) the door shuts at 23:00 local, so the last departure from BEG that lands inside it leaves around 21:17, on a modelled block of 1h 43m. Into Vienna (VIE) the door shuts at 23:30 local, so the last departure from BEG that lands inside it leaves around 22:19, on a modelled block of 1h 11m. Into Frankfurt-am-Main (FRA) the door shuts at 23:00 local, so the last departure from BEG that lands inside it leaves around 21:09, on a modelled block of 1h 51m. Those three departure times out of BEG are worked backwards from the published window with the block time model this site uses everywhere, 720 to 880 km an hour by sector length with thirty minutes on the ground, so they are arithmetic rather than a timetable and the desk checks the published departure before it promises the landing.

Where BEG turns up on the rest of this site

BEG carries two other pages on this site as well: the Serbia country desk, which sets out the customs practice, the working week and the road legs behind this airport and the BEG transit page for the connecting case, where a courier changes aircraft here rather than starting or finishing.

The site publishes 10 airport pair pages that start or end at BEG, each with the distance, the block time, the carriers on the sector and a door to door clock. The busiest are Belgrade to Moscow (SVO), Belgrade to Dubai (DXB) and Belgrade to Hamburg (HAM).

Three courier postings name BEG as the airport a courier here flies from: Belgrade, Novi Sad and Kragujevac.

To price a movement rather than read the board, the route calculator opens with BEG already set as the origin, and it works out the flying time, the distance and the delivery hour for any of the 117 destinations above.
