Instructions in braille on Air Serbia flights

Air Serbia and the Union of the Blind of Serbia today signed a cooperation agreement, initiating joint activities to raise public awareness of the challenges faced by blind and visually impaired individuals. This agreement aims to further improve the overall status and quality of life for blind and visually impaired persons, launching projects designed to make Air Serbia's services more accessible and user-friendly for this group of passengers. For the first time in the company's history, and at the initiative of the Union of the Blind of Serbia, instructions for emergency procedures in Braille will be introduced on Air Serbia flights.

"Our company is continuously committed to equal rights for all passengers. We were pleased to respond to the invitation of the Union of the Blind of Serbia and, together with them, prepared emergency procedure instructions in Braille, which will soon be available on our flights. In this way, we aim to make travel easier for blind and visually impaired individuals and encourage them to fly. By introducing various materials in Braille, as well as through other joint activities, we will strive to contribute to creating a more inclusive environment," said Jiri Marek, CEO of Air Serbia.

"The cooperation with Air Serbia represents a significant step forward in achieving our goals. Together, we will work on creating new and innovative solutions that can ease the daily lives of blind and visually impaired people, particularly in the area of travel," emphasized Milan Stošić, president of the Union of the Blind of Serbia.

The cooperation agreement signed today between Air Serbia and the Union of the Blind of Serbia once again confirms their commitment to social responsibility and improving the quality of life for all citizens, particularly for blind and visually impaired individuals in the Republic of Serbia. In addition to Braille materials, other activities were agreed upon, including the education of employees of Serbia’s national airline and raising public awareness regarding the position and daily needs of blind and visually impaired individuals.
