Terminals / concourses: Gates A, Gates C

Getting between them: Walking through the airside corridors; about 10 minutes from gate area A to gate area C

Belgrade formally has two terminals, but since a 2022 renovation they are one building with a single central security and passport control on the first floor. Connecting passengers on one ticket do not check in again.

  • Arriving from EU or US flights you reach the departure gate area without passport or security checks (5 to 20 minutes between planes); from other countries you go through a special security corridor, with no passport control (20 to 35 minutes).
  • For departures at peak times (5:30 to 7:30 and 18:00 to 23:00) arrive 2.5 hours early: security queues can reach 40 minutes.

Estimate based on typical times at this airport, not your airline's official minimum connection time. Immigration and security lines change with the time of day and season. On a single ticket, the airline must rebook you if you miss the connection; on separate tickets, it does not.
