New dawn in the Gulf

Article Abstract:

Middle Eastern air carriers appear to be recovering from the Gulf War and a global recession as major indicators such as passenger traffic, profits and aircraft purchases are on the way up. The Middle East and North Africa fleet is projected to double in size between 1999 and 2017, according to Airbus Industrie. The largest order to date was placed by Saudi Arabian Airlines for $7.5 billion worth of 61 aircraft from Boeing.

Belgrade bounces back

Article Abstract:

Belgrade International Airport general manager Ljubomir Acimovic reports that passenger number at the state-owned airport increased to between 600,000 to 700,00 in 2000. The rise in passenger traffic was attributed to the lifting of the European flight ban to Yugoslavia at the start of 2000. The airport expects further increases in international arrivals if the US lifts its flight ban.
