Air Serbia EU261 Compensation — up to €600
Air Serbia (IATA: JU) is Serbia's national carrier, based at Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport (BEG). Because Serbia is not in the EU or EEA, EU261 only applies when your flight departed from a UK or EU airport — for example London, Paris, Amsterdam, Frankfurt, or Vienna. Delays on the return leg (Belgrade → London) are not covered.

What qualifies for a claim?
Important:“Technical issues” and “operational problems” are NOT extraordinary circumstances. If Air Serbia cancels or delays citing technical problems, you can still claim.
How far back can you claim?
Deadline starts from the date of the delayed/cancelled flight. If you flew London→Belgrade in July 2020, you have until July 2026 to file in the UK.
