Log in
From the calm order of Oslo to the vibrant, gritty, and endlessly energetic streets of Belgrade, this journey is a study in contrasts. Belgrade (Beograd) is the capital of Serbia and the undisputed hub of the Balkans. Whether you are returning home to visit family ("VFR" travel), attending a business conference, or exploring one of Europe’s most exciting nightlife capitals, Ready2Go is your trusted partner for the journey south.
Flying from Oslo (OSL) to Belgrade (BEG) is a popular route, connecting the large Serbian diaspora in Norway with their roots, while also opening up a budget-friendly and culturally rich destination for Norwegian tourists. At Ready2Go, we ensure your trip is secure, comfortable, and perfectly planned.
For many travelers on this route, the trip is personal. We understand the specific needs of the diaspora community and leisure travelers alike, offering a service level that goes beyond a simple transaction.
1. Connecting Families & Friends
A significant portion of traffic between Oslo and Belgrade consists of people visiting friends and relatives. We know that these trips often involve heavy luggage—gifts from Norway going south, and homemade "ajvar" or "rakija" coming north. We specialize in finding fares with generous baggage allowances (often including 23kg or more), so you don't have to worry about excess fees at the check-in desk.
2. Direct vs. Connecting Routes
The route is served by a mix of direct flights (typically seasonal via airlines like Norwegian or Air Serbia) and connections via major hubs like Frankfurt, Munich, or Vienna. Our experts monitor these schedules daily. We help you secure the direct options when they are available to save time, or find the smoothest connections during the off-season to minimize layover stress.
3. Local Norwegian Support
Navigating travel in the Balkans can sometimes be unpredictable. By booking with Ready2Go, you have a local team in Norway to rely on. If a flight is cancelled or you need to change your return date due to a family emergency, we are just a phone call away. We advocate for you, ensuring your consumer rights are protected under Norwegian law.
Departure from Gardermoen:
Your journey begins at Oslo Airport Gardermoen.
Ready2Go Tip: If you are traveling during summer or Orthodox Christmas (early January), flights to Belgrade fill up fast. We recommend booking well in advance to secure reasonable prices.
Arrival at Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport (BEG):
You will land at Serbia’s main international gateway, located about 18 km west of the city center.
A Modern Hub: The airport has undergone significant renovation and expansion in recent years, making arrival smoother than ever.
Getting to Town:
The A1 Shuttle: This minibus takes you to Slavija Square in the city center. It is affordable and reliable.
Taxi Advice: Never take a taxi offered by drivers standing in the arrival hall. Always go to the official "Taxi Info" desk to get a voucher with a fixed price, or use an app like CarGo (the local equivalent of Uber) to ensure a fair rate.
Belgrade is a city that never sleeps, situated at the confluence of the Sava and Danube rivers.
The Fortress: Kalemegdan Park and the Belgrade Fortress offer stunning sunset views over the two rivers. It is the historic heart of the city and a peaceful escape from the traffic.
River Nightlife: In summer, the party moves to the "Splavovi"—floating river clubs that line the banks of the Sava. It is a nightlife experience unique to Belgrade.
Saint Sava Temple: One of the largest Orthodox churches in the world. The mosaic interior is breathtaking and rivals anything found in Italy or Russia.
Coffee Culture: Belgraders take their coffee seriously. The cafe culture in Dorćol is vibrant, with trendy roasteries on every corner.
To ensure your Serbian adventure is "Odlično" (excellent), here is expert advice from our team:
Currency: Serbia uses the Serbian Dinar (RSD). While cards are widely accepted in supermarkets and malls, you absolutely need cash for kiosks, bakeries (pekara), and taxis. Exchange a small amount at the airport or use an ATM.
Smoking: Be aware that smoking is still permitted indoors in many restaurants and bars in Serbia, which can be a shock for Norwegians. If you prefer a smoke-free environment, look for places marked "Non-smoking."
Registration: If you are staying with friends or family (not in a hotel), you are legally required to register with the local police station within 24 hours of arrival. Hotels do this automatically. We can advise you on this process.
Festival Goers: Heading to the EXIT Festival in nearby Novi Sad? We can arrange flights that align with festival shuttles, making the transfer seamless.
Business Travelers: Serbia is a growing hub for IT and nearshoring. We offer flexible corporate ticketing for professionals, ensuring you can adjust your plans as business dictates.
Dental Tourism: Like Budapest, Belgrade is popular for high-quality, affordable dental work. We can help coordinate your travel dates with your clinic appointments.
From the history of Skadarlija to the energy of the Sava, Belgrade awaits. Let Ready2Go handle the logistics while you plan your first burek.
