NEWS FLASH


Serbia and the United Kingdom are set to modernise their air service agreement, more than seven decades after it was first signed. The head of the Serbian Civil Aviation Directorate, Mirjana Čizmarov, met with the Ambassador of the United Kingdom to Serbia, Edward Ferguson, to discuss preparations for a new Memorandum of Understanding, that will update and enhance the existing Air Services Agreement.

The upcoming agreement will replace the existing air services framework from 1950. Officials on both sides view this move as an important step in strengthening bilateral ties and improving connectivity between the two countries. This summer, there are sixteen weekly flights between Serbia and the United Kingdom, maintained by Air Serbia and Wizz Air’s UK unit.

      The issue is the UK government and its own visa policies towards us.
      Unless it is abolished or becomes just a very simple formality the UK-Serbia market will never reach its full potential.

      Hopefully Montenegro will join the EU soon which will force the UK to remove visas for their passport holders and might start a process of reasessement. Yes it depends on the awful right-wing politics that over-shadows sucessive British government, however i always find is strange that the Serbian government doesnt raise this issue more vocally. The serbian government doesnt really care about its own citizens and the British government is equally pathetic on this issue.

    Flight to Edinburgh or other cities would be desirable.

    There is a zero chance for UK removing visas for Serbian citizens any time soon and with various prospective goverments.

    Even petition for this to be brought to the Parliament's attention fails.
