Imagine this: you’re heading to the beach by bus, and suddenly you’re at war with your own luggage! New rules say – one bag up to 23 kilograms, that’s it! But no, some people still think the bus is a magical vehicle with endless space. Aleksandar Seničić, director of YUTA, doesn’t hold back – the bus is not a magic truck, and too much luggage can kill! Yes, you read that right. If the bus brakes hard, bags flying around the cabin can be deadly. So the law says: only small hand luggage in the cabin, bigger bags go in the luggage compartment. Fines? One million dinars! Yes, one million! And that’s no joke.
But wait, there’s more! Some folks still try to bring 10 bags like they’re moving out of the country. Rakija, potatoes, and all sorts of stuff – none of that fits on the bus! And no, there’s no official banned list, but agency rules remind you that you’re not at a market, you’re on a trip. Baby strollers? No problem, just don’t bring two stroller suitcases and expect everyone to cut you some slack.
And yes, if you have extra luggage, get ready to pay extra – from 30 to 50 euros, depending on the agency. Some carriers won’t even accept extra luggage if there’s no space. It’s all about safety and comfort for other passengers. Buses have already broken down due to overload – half-axles snapped, and that’s not something you want on your way to the sea.
So next time you pack for vacation, remember: the bus is not your personal moving truck! Stick to the rules or prepare for fines and angry looks from other passengers. Got any crazy bus luggage stories? Drop a comment, let’s have a laugh together!
