bus · GSP Beograd, for the City of BelgradeNight bus 72N to Republic Square
From
The "Aerodrom Nikola Tesla /dolasci/" stop outside arrivals
To
Republic Square (Trg Republike), the last stop, one minute after Zeleni venac; via Studentski grad, the Arena, Blok 21 and Brankov most
Luggage
A night bus of the ordinary fleet; no racks.

Journey
45 min

Three buses a night and then nothing. Miss the 02:30 and the next public departure is the 600 at 04:30 (to the station) or the 72 at 04:50; the A1 is away until 06:45.

It is the only free service that goes all the way to Republic Square; by day the 72 stops at Zeleni venac below it.

Forty-five minutes on the timetable, through Novi Beograd's night stops rather than the 72's daytime loop through Ledine.

Free on the same City resolution as the day bus. Nobody should be selling a ticket for it.

Take a fixed-price certificate from one of the four e-kiosks — three in baggage reclaim, one in the arrivals hall — then the first car in the rank outside the arrivals terminal
To
Any address in the zone printed on the certificate; the center is zone 2

Get the certificate before the rank. The fixed price exists only on the City's certificate from the e-kiosks; without it the ride is on the meter, and the airport tells you to hand the certificate to the first car in the queue.

The center is zone 2, RSD 3,500 — Not the cheapest zone. Zone 1 at RSD 2,700 is Novi Beograd. Republic Square, Terazije, Slavija, the old town and the main station are all in zone 2.

Four passengers at most, by the City's seat cap and the airport's rule; five people are two cars and RSD 7,000.

No authority states a taxi journey time. The 30 to 45 minutes here are the airport's own figure for its express minibus over the same road and the City's scheduled time for it, not a taxi figure.

Between 02:30 and 04:30 it is the only thing that leaves, at the same RSD 3,500; the price does not change at night.

Complaints go to the City, not the airport: the Secretariat for Inspection, [email protected], or 11-0-11 from a local line.
