Air Serbia Business Class To Belgrade, Up To 7 Seats
Often overlooked, Air Serbia provides an easy way to fly non-stop between the US and the Balkans. With up to 7 seats in business class available, you can bring your entire family and/or a bunch of friends with you.
While you'll fly into Belgrade, you can also connect to other cities in Europe.
If you were planning to apply for the the World of Hyatt Business Credit Card, the bonus ends at 7am on Oct 19 (tomorrow). More details here (my affiliate).

When paying cash, you could get perks such as daily breakfast for 2, a $100 property credit, and even a room upgrade via preferred booking programs.
To make this easier, I've partnered with a luxury travel agency that offers a self-service booking portal where you can check rates and book yourself with many programs including Hyatt Privé, Marriott STARS, Virtuoso, and more.
I can also book Four Seasons Preferred Partner and Rosewood Elite rates.
I had a nice experience on my flight in December of last year. However, Ben from One Mile At A Time had a less than awesome experience last year.
Personally, I found the crew to be friendly and the local Serbian wines to be quite good. I would order both meals as soon as you can to ensure you get your preferred options.
Since the aircraft doesn't have WiFi and the inflight entertainment options are limited, I would suggest downloading some movies/shows prior to departure.
If you're looking for a way to get to the Balkans from the US, this is one of the most efficient ways to do it. Plus, with the addition of a Chicago route, we have another departure airport in addition to JFK.
