JAT Airways runs a bus service between the airport and its city terminal at Hotel Slavija (Slavija square) in the city center. The airport bus leaves the airport every hour on the hour between 07:00 and 22:00 taking approximately 30 minutes to reach the center of Belgrade. The bus also stops at Fontana in Novi Beograd and at the central railway station. One way fare is 160 dinars (~2 euros) and can be paid directly to the bus driver.
On the way back, the bus shuttle leaves the down terminal at Slavija hotel every hour on the hour between 05:00 and 21:00.
Regular public transportation
Public bus line 72 departs from the airport every 30 minutes, and will take you through several parts of Belgrade before arriving at its final stop near the Zeleni Venac green market in the city center. The bus ticket costs 20 dinars (~0.25 euro) if bought at a newspaper stand, or 30 dinars if bought from the bus driver. Although cheaper, this is probably not the best option for first time visitors to Belgrade, unless you have a map of Belgrade with yourself or are the adventurous type of traveller.
Taxi
Taxi: The taxi fare form the airport to the city center is around 600 dinars and you can reach downtown Belgrade in about 15 minutes. Although not expensive, the taxi method comes with a catch. Do not take any of the taxis that will welcome you to use their services in the arrivals hall. You risk of being overcharged, and pay as much as 50 euros for a 10 euro ride. Instead, call a taxi: You can dial number 970 (or 011 970 if calling from a mobile phone) and ask for a taxi; or you can go to the Belgrade Tourist Office at Belgrade airport and ask them to call an official taxi for you; OR you can text a taxi, by sending an SMS to 9700 with the following content: "T Medjunarodni Dolasci Aerodrom". You will receive an SMS with the following content: Vozilo broj *** za * minuta. (Taxi number *** in * minutes). Go out, and wait for your taxi. Just make sure that it has the same number as the one you received in your SMS. Taxi drivers are obliged to use taximeters, do not negotiate your fare.
Hotel Shuttle
Some hotels run a complimentary minibus service between the airport and the hotel, including the Hyatt Regency and the InterContinental (weekdays only). Ask your concierge.
