Air Serbia Flight Delays Compensation

When your international flight with Air Serbia is delayed, there is a chance that you’re eligible for a compensation. Because Air Serbia is not a European airline, this applies both to their flights departing from Europe and to their flights leaving from out of Europe and arriving in Europe.

How can you get this compensation? Thanks to the EU Regulation 261/2004 (EC261 in short): it’s the European law which protects your passenger rights. It’s unlikely that the airline told you about those - few airlines do. It states that airlines responsible for delays of at least 3 hours owe their passengers between 250 and 600€ in compensation. The exact amount varies according to the distance of your journey.

So next time your flight from Europe with Air Serbia is delayed, take the time to verify whether you’re eligible: you may get up to 600€ from the airline. Just fill out our calculator and you will know in less than 3 minutes what you can hope for!

Air Serbia Flight Cancellation Compensation

Just like delays, the cancellation of your flight may get you between 250 and 600€. Once again, EC261 protects you when this happens to your flight to or from Europe with Air Serbia.

However, your rights in cases of cancellations are a bit more tricky to understand, as it requires taking into account whether you’ve been warned by the airline beforehand and if so, how long before the flight exactly. If you’ve been rebooked on another flight, the delay at your destination compared to your initial scheduled flight also impact the compensation amount.
