Re: How Serbia spoilt best laid plans. (none / 1)

So, in retaliation, they have imposed considerable restrictions on the border, it takes a long time to cross, the queues are long and slow moving.

Are you sure these restrictions aren't our, Schengen border guards?

Not according to a few people I've met who've done the Serbia route. I don't know if it is central policy directed from Belgrade or if it is just local security milking the situation for their own benefit or a combination, but the collective view I've heard can be summarised as "ripping everybody off".
