Minister for Infrastructure Milutin Mrkonjic stated that one of the Ministry’s goals will be to consolidate the national airline company Jat Airways in the next two years, for which it has designated RSD 1 billion.
Mrkonjic announced that by February 1 Jat management will have to draft a detailed plan on how the funds will be used.

Assistant Minister for Air Traffic Radoslav Tomasevic stressed that Jat Tehnika employs around 1000 people, of whom 400 are mechanics capable of repairing and maintaining European and American types of airplanes.
