The closing time of the counter may also be more restrictive depending on the airline, class, seat overload on the flight and similar.
It is necessary to be at the airport no later than 2 hours before the scheduled departure time of the aircraft.

We offer the possibility of check-in without leaving the customs zone of the airport for passengers who, upon their landing, continue their travel with another flight. This is especially important for passengers who are not checked-in for all flights till the final destination, as well as passengers who do not have the right to enter the territory of Montenegro.
