There is a very large community of people not only from Serbia, but from the countries derived from Ex-Yugoslavia (Croatia, Bosnia, Northern Macedonia, Montenegro, Kosovo) living in Bergen and its surroundings. For people who live in Hordaland it is extremely difficult to travel to Balkans due to minimum one stopping and very expensive flying tickets specially during holidays and summer and winter vacations.

Belgrade, the capital of Serbia and former capital of Ex-Yugoslavia is the logical choice because, with introducing the direct flight from Bergen, it could be possible to answer transport demands for the most countries from Balkan Peninsula. Driving time form Belgrade airport to the capitals (Zagreb, Sarajevo, Podgorica, Skopje, Pristine, and further, Sofia, and Budapest) of Balkan countries doesn't exceed four hours. That is quite acceptable considering minimum two-hours time between connected flights, simultaneously with several airport check-in points and controls and significant savings for flying tickets. 

So, if others share this opinion, I would like to encourage everyone who is tired from several stops, airport controls and extremely expensive tickets to vote and support this petition.  

Thank you in advance,
