The first row is reserved for staff and is not assigned to passengers unless necessary. Travelers must accept the assigned seat.

It is recommended to consult the Delegation of the EU in Serbia at www.europa.rs, or the embassy or consulate of the destination/transit countries. The agency is not responsible if border authorities deny entry.

Leaving valuables in the bus or hotel rooms is not advised as neither is responsible for lost/stolen items. Only insured items may be compensated through insurance companies. Complaints to the organizer in such cases are not valid.
