If you’ve been eyeing a trip to Serbia, here’s your chance. There’s wide-open business class award availability to Belgrade (BEG) from a pair of U.S. cities. Since there aren’t many direct flights to Serbia, this is a fantastic opportunity to lock in lie-flat seats on nonstop routes instead of connecting through another European hub.

Even better, availability covers nearly all of 2026. Let’s dive into the details.

Award Deal — Details

As you plan trips for this year, you’ll be excited to know that there’s plenty of availability to fly Air Serbia nonstop to Belgrade from 2 different U.S. gateways. Even better, you can book these flights for as few as 70,000 Aeroplan points one-way in business class. Taxes and fees are minimal, making this a stellar way to travel comfortably to southeastern Europe.

Class: Business
Routes: New York (JFK) and Chicago (ORD) to Belgrade (BEG)
Cost: From 70,000 Aeroplan points plus $57 in taxes and fees
Travel dates: February through December 2026
Award seats: Up to 4 seats

Only Air Serbia flies direct from the U.S. to Serbia, making this deal especially exciting. At the moment, you’ll only find direct flights from New York and Chicago to Belgrade on Air Serbia, though note that the lion’s share of availability is out of Chicago. However, there are dates showing award availability from JFK. If you’re not based in either New York or Chicago, a quick positioning flight to one of these cities could be well worth it to snag a comfortable business-class seat straight to Belgrade.

How To Book

Your best bet for booking these awards is by redeeming Aeroplan points, paying just 70,000 points each way in business class. You’ll also pay about $57 per person in taxes and fees. Head to Aeroplan’s website to search availability, and you’ll see the nonstop Air Serbia flights pop up on multiple dates. The website will show you 7 days of availability at a time.

If your preferred dates aren’t available, check a tool like Seats.aero, which can scan multiple months and routes at once to help you identify award availability.

Hot Tip:

Aeroplan is one of the most flexible loyalty programs, largely because of how many transfer partners it has. You can instantly move points from American Express Membership Rewards, Chase Ultimate Rewards, Capital One miles, and Bilt Rewards. Marriott Bonvoy is also a partner and occasionally offers transfer bonuses, which can stretch your points even further. With all of these options, topping off your Aeroplan account is simple if you find yourself just shy of the points needed for a redemption.

Final Thoughts

It’s rare to see wide-open business class award space to Serbia, especially on nonstop flights from the U.S. If you’ve been hoping to skip a connection and fly directly to Belgrade in comfort, now’s the time to book. At just 70,000 Aeroplan points each way with low fees, this deal is tough to beat.
