On some services, Air Serbia has arrangements with other carriers known as "Code Shares". This means that even if you have a reservation with Air Serbia and hold a ticket where Air Serbia name or airline designator code is indicated as the carrier, another carrier may operate the aircraft. If such arrangements apply, Air Serbia will advise you of the carrier operating the aircraft at the time you make a reservation.

These Conditions of Carriage are applicable unless they are inconsistent with Air SerbiaTariffs or applicable law in which event such Tariffs or laws shall prevail.

2.5 CONDITIONS PREVAIL OVER REGULATIONS

 

Except as provided in these Conditions of Carriage, in the event of inconsistency between these Conditions of carriage and any other regulations Air Serbia may have, dealing with particular subjects, these Conditions of Carriage shall prevail.

3. Tickets

 

3.1 GENERAL PROVISIONS

 

Air Serbia will provide carriage only to the Passenger named in the Ticket, and you may be required to produce appropriate identification.

 

A Ticket is not transferable.

 

Some Tickets are sold at discounted fares which may be partially or completely non-refundable. You should choose the fare best suited to your needs. You may also wish to ensure that you have appropriate insurance to cover instances where you have to cancel your Ticket.

 

If you have a Ticket, which is completely unused, and you are prevented from travelling due to Force Majeure, provided that you promptly advise Air Serbia and furnish evidence of such Force Majeure, Air Serbia will provide you with a credit of the non-refundable amount of the fare, for future travel on Air Serbia, subject to deduction of a reasonable administration fee.

 

The Ticket is and remains at all times the property of the issuing carrier.

 

Except in the case of an Electronic Ticket, you shall not be entitled to be carried on a flight unless you present a valid Ticket containing Flight Coupon for that flight and all other unused Flight Coupons and the Passenger Coupon. In addition, you shall not be entitled to be carried if the Ticket presented is mutilated or if it has been altered otherwise than by Air Serbia or Air Serbia Authorised Agent. In the case of an Electronic Ticket, you shall not be entitled to be carried on a flight unless you provide positive identification and a valid Electronic Ticket has been duly issued in your name.

 

In case of loss or mutilation of a Ticket (or part of it) by you or non-presentation of a Ticket containing the Passenger Coupon and all unused Flight Coupons, upon your request Air Serbia will replace such Ticket (or part of it) by issuing a new Ticket, provided there is evidence, readily ascertainable at the time, that a Ticket valid for the flight(s) in question was duly issued and you sign an agreement to reimburse Air Serbia for any costs and losses, up to the value of the original ticket, which are necessarily and reasonably incurred by Air Serbia or another carrier for misuse of the Ticket. Air Serbia will not claim reimbursement from you for any such losses which result from Air Serbia own negligence. The issuing carrier may charge a reasonable administration fee for this service, unless the loss or mutilation was due to the negligence of the issuing carrier, or its agent.

 

Where such evidence is not available or you do not sign such an agreement, the carrier issuing the new Ticket may require you to pay up to the full Ticket price for a replacement Ticket, subject to refund if and when the original issuing carrier is satisfied that the lost or mutilated Ticket has not been used before the expiry of its validity. If, upon finding the original Ticket before the expiry of its validity, you surrender it to the carrier issuing the new Ticket, the foregoing refund will be processed at that time.

 

A ticket is valuable and you should take appropriate measures to safeguard it and ensure it is not lost or stolen.

 

3.2 PERIOD OF VALIDITY

 

Except as otherwise provided in the Ticket, these Conditions, or in applicable Tariffs, (which may limit the validity of a ticket, in which case the limitation will be shown on the Ticket), a Ticket is valid for: one year from the date issue or subject to the first travel occurring within one year from the date of issue, one year from the date of first travel under the Ticket.

 

When you are prevented from travelling within the period of validity of the Ticket because at the time you request reservations Air Serbia is unable to confirm a reservation, the validity of such Ticket will be extended, or you may be entitled to a refund in accordance witharticle 10.

 

If after having commenced your journey, you are prevented from travelling within the period of validity of the Ticket by reason of illness, Air Serbia may extend the period of validity until the date when you become fit to travel or unitl Air Serbia first flight after such date, from the point where the journey is resumed on which space is available in the class of service for which the fare has been paid. Such illness must be attested to by a medical certificate. When the flight coupons remaining in the Ticket, or in the case of an Electronic Ticket the electronic coupon, involve one or more Stopovers, the validity of such ticket may be extended for not more than three months from the date shown on such certificate. In such circumstances, Air Serbia will similarly extend the period of validity of Tickets of other members of your immediate family accompanying you.

 

In the event of death of a Passenger en route, the Tickets of persons accompanying the Passenger may be modified by waiving the minimum stay or extending the validity. In the event of a death in the immediate family of a Passenger who has commenced travel, the validity of the Passengers Tickets and those of his her immediate family who are accompanying the Passenger may be likewise be modified. Any such modification shall be made upon receipt of a valid death certificate and any such extension of validity shall not be for a period longer than forty-five (45) Days from the date of the death.

 

3.3 COUPON SEQUENCE AND USE

 

The Ticket you have purchased is valid only for the transportation as shown on the Ticket, from the place of departure via any Agreed Stopping Places to the final destination. The fare you have paid is based upon Air Serbia Tariff and is for the transportation as shown on the Ticket. It forms an essential part of Air Serbia contract with you. The Ticket will not be honoured and will lose its validity if all the Coupons are not used in the sequence provided in the Ticket.

 

If you wish to change any aspect of your transportation you must contact Air Serbia in advance. The fare for your new transportation will be calculated and you will be given the option of accepting the new price or maintaining your original transportation as ticketed. Should you be required to change any aspect of your transportation due to Force Majeure, you must contact Air Serbia as soon as possible and Air Serbia will use reasonable efforts to transport you to your next Stopover or final destination, without recalculation of the fare.

 

Should you change your transportation without our agreement, Air Serbia will access the correct price for your actual travel. You will have to pay any difference between the price you have paid and the total price applicable for your revised transportation. Air Serbia will refund you the difference if the new price is lower but otherwise, your unused Coupons have no value.

 

Some types of changes will not result in a change of fare, others, such as changing the place of departure (for example if you do not fly the first segment) or reversing the direction you travel, can result in an increase in price. Many fares are valid only on the dates and for the flights shown on the Ticket and may not be changed at all, or only upon payment of an additional fee.

 

Each Flight Coupon contained in your Ticket will be accepted for transportation in the class of service on the date and flight for which space has been reserved. When a Ticket is originally issued without a reservation being specified, space may be later reserved subject to Air Serbia Tariff and the availability of space on the flight requested.

 

Please be advised that In the event you do not show up for any flight without advising Air Serbia in advance, Air Serbia may cancel your return or onward reservations. However, if you do advise Air Serbia in advance, Air Serbia will not cancel your subsequent flight reservations.

Carriage to be performed by Air Serbia and other Carriers under one Ticket, or a Conjunction Ticket is regarded as a single operation for the purposes of the Convention.

15. Liability for Damage

 

The liability of Air Serbia and each carrier involved in your journey will be determined by its own Conditions of Carriage. Our liability provisions are as follows:

 

  • Unless otherwise stated herein, international travel, as defined in the Montreal Convention, is subject to the liability rules of the Convention.
  • Any liability Air Serbia have for damage, will be reduced by any negligence on your part which causes or contributes to the damage in accordance with applicable law.
  • We are liable only for damage occurring on our own flights. If we issue a ticket or check baggage over the lines of another carrier we do so only as an agent for such other carrier. Nevertheless, with respect to checked baggage the passenger shall also have a right of action against the first or last carrier.
  • Air Serbia will not be liable for damage to unchecked baggage unless such damage is caused by Air Serbia negligence.
  • We are not liable for any damage arising from Air Serbia compliance with applicable laws or Government rules and regulations, or from your failure to comply with the same.

The Air Serbia liability is determined with "Law on obligations and the Basics of Property Relations in Air Transport", which is harmonized with "Montreal Convention" and "Regulation (EC) No 889/2002".

 

Air Carrier liability for passengers and their baggage

 

  1. Compensation in the case of death or injury
    There are no financial limits to the liability for passenger injury or death. For damages up to 128 821 SDRs (approximate amount in local currency) the air carrier cannot contest claims for compensation. Above that amount, the air carrier can defend itself against a claim by proving that it was not negligent or otherwise at fault.
  2. Advance payments
    If a passenger is injured or killed, the air carrier must make an advance payment, to cover immediate economic needs, within 15 days from the identification of the person entitled to compensation. In the event of death, this advance payment shall not be less than 16 000 SDRs (approximate amount in local currency).
  3. Passenger delays
    In case of passenger delay, the air carrier is liable for damage unless it took all reasonable measures to avoid the damage or it was impossible to take such measures. The liability for passenger delay is limited to 5 346 SDRs (approximate amount in local currency).
  4. Baggage delays
    In case of baggage delay, the air carrier is liable for damage unless it took all reasonable measures to avoid the damage or it was impossible to take such measures. The liability for baggage delay is limited to 1 288 SDRs (approximate amount in local currency).
  5. Destruction, loss or damage to baggage
    The air carrier is liable for destruction, loss or damage to baggage up to 1 288 SDRs (approximate amount in local currency). In the case of checked baggage, the air carrier is liable even if not at fault, unless the baggage was defective. In the case of unchecked baggage, the carrier is liable only if at fault.
  6. Higher limits for baggage
    If the value of baggage exceeds the applicable liability limit determined by Montreal Convention, passenger is strongly advised to fully insure it before traveling.
  7. Complaints on baggage
    If the baggage is damaged, delayed, lost or destroyed, the passenger must write and complain to the air carrier as soon as possible. In the case of damage to checked baggage, the passenger must write and complain within seven days and in the case of delay within 21 days, in both cases from the date on which the baggage was placed at the passenger's disposal.
  8. Liability of contracting and actual carriers
    If the air carrier actually performing the flight is not the same as the contracting air carrier, the passenger has the right to address a complaint or to make a claim for damages against either. If the name or code of an air carrier is indicated on the ticket, that air carrier is the contracting air carrier.
  9. Time limit for action
    Any action in court to claim damages must be brought within two years from the date of arrival of the aircraft, or from the date on which the aircraft ought to have arrived.
  10. The basis for the rules described above is the Montreal Convention of 28 May 1999 and "Law on obligations and the Basics of Property Relations in Air Transport".

The total amount recoverable from Air Serbia and from such authorized agents, employees, representatives and persons shall not exceed the amount of Air Serbia own liability, if any.

 

Nothing in these Conditions of Carriage shall waive any exclusion or limitation of Air Serbia liability under the Convention or applicable laws unless otherwise expressly stated.
