The first link led to a Fokker F-28 to Bari in Italy. 1998, was the second Fokker F-28 purchased and the objectives were expanded. However, the expansion was stopped by the sanctions against Yugoslavia in early 1999. Only in the fall of 1999, the airline was able to resume flight operations. In 2000 the first Fokker 100 was recorded in the fleet and in the three following years further three aircraft of this pattern were purchased. This replaced the Fokker F- 28th

In 2006 the company founded - now non-existent - subsidiary airline Master Airways, based in Nis, Serbia. In the same year in June, the airline carried its two millionth passenger.
