ctor Predrag “Miki” Manojlović cer-
emoniously revealed his name embla-
zoned on the fuselage of an Airbus A319
The fourth Airbus A319 aircraft in
the Air Serbia fleet has been named. The
national airline named the plane after
actor Predrag “Miki” Manojlović, thereby
continuing its tradition of having its air-
craft around the world carry the names of
famous “living legends of Serbia”.
Air Serbia’s Living Legends pro-
gramme offers recognition to the citizens
of Serbia who gained international fame in
their chosen fields. In the past two years the
company has named planes after sports-
men Novak Đoković, Vlade Divac and
Dejan Stanković.
This tennis ace, former basketball
legend and football great of international
repute are now joined by Miki Manojlović,
who in 2012 was voted the best film actor
of all time from the former Yugoslavia by
members of the public and industry profes-
sionals. Manojlović was chosen due to his
major contribution to the development of
film, television and theatre in the area of
the former Yugoslavia during a career span-
ning nearly five decades.
At a modest ceremony to mark the
occasion at Belgrade’s Nikola Tesla Airport,
Manojlović, together with Air Serbia CEO
Dane Kondić, unveiled the inscription
“Miki Manojlovic”, printed on the fuselage.
Miki Manojlović said he was proud that
his name would fly, and he with it, admit-
ting that he did not expect such recognition
and announcing that he would be taking
his next trip on an Air Serbia flight in just
a few days.
He added that he is looking forward to,
as he was told, “the names of our fantastic
athletes and artists, of whom we have a
large number” being taken by other aircraft
in the Air Serbia fleet.
- It is an honour for me to be associated
with Air Serbia, which promotes Serbia
in the world in an excellent way – said
Manojlović.
Predrag “Miki” Manojlović played the
first of his 35 starring theatre roles in 1970. In
film he has played 65 roles. He has played the
lead roles in two films that have gone on to
win the Golden Palm at the Cannes Film Fes-
tival and has been nominated for an Academy
Award, a Golden Globe and as the best actor
in Europe. His fame spread beyond Yugosla-
via. He has performed in many theatres in
Europe and, thanks to his fluent command of
French, English and Italian, he has made films
in all continents, except Australasia.
On television he played memorable
roles in acclaimed television series “Writ-
ten Off”, “The Unpicked Strawberries” and
“Vuk Karadžić”.
