Yugoslavia lies in the southern half of the northern temperate zone, but the climate of its mountains, interior plain, and seacoast varies dramatically according to elevation, prevailing winds, and distance from the sea. The mountain regions fall under the influence of continental air currents and Mediterranean air masses. Snow blankets most of the highlands during the winter, but temperature and precipitation differ with elevation
Yugoslavia has four international airports: Belgrade-Surccin, Nish, Tivat and Podgorica and many sports airfields. The national carrier is Yugoslav Air Transport (JAT). Belgrade airport has regular connections with almost all capitals and larger cities in Europe and the rest of the World.
