Здраво!
I have an upcoming flight from Belgrade BEG to Germany departing at approx 6:00 AM
Since it's an international flight, I would need to arrive around 3:00 AM, which would mean taking an expensive taxi to the airport in the middle of the night and getting up around 2:00 AM.
Instead, I was thinking about taking the last public transport to the airport the previous evening (around 11 PM–12 AM) and spending the rest of the night at the airport.
I have a few questions:
- Am I allowed to stay overnight at the airport?
- I only have carry-on luggage. Would I be able to go through security and into the departure area around midnight, or does security only open a few hours before departure? I believe it would be better to sit/lay down airside than in the public area. I also came across this mention of someone being asked to move, so I wasn't sure what the current situation is: https://www.sleepinginairports.net/guides/belgrade-airport-guide.htm
- This will be my first time re-entering the Schengen Area since the Entry/Exit System (EES) was introduced. Does this change the situation in any way? Should I expect longer processing times or anything different?
Any advice or recent experiences would be greatly appreciated :)
Thanks in advance!
