Transportation in Serbia

Serbia has a number of rivers flowing through it. The most important one is the Danube. Belgrade's key position of the Danube makes it a shipping power in the region. The country has three international airports with JAT Airlines being the countries' carrier. The airports are: Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport, Nis Constantine the Great Airport, and the Pristina International Airport. Many roads pass through Serbia. The new Balkan Highway the EU is planning excpects Serbia to be in the center of the highway and it will pass straight through Belgrade which will no doubt bring an economic boom in Belgrade. The countries railways are operated on a national level by Serbian Railways and in Belgrade by Beovoz.
