A lot of people have been transiting through Serbia lately since it's not part of the EU. The arrivals area was packed shoulder to shoulder when I was there last month.
Do you guys have direct flights to US? I was thinking about Croatia for the same reason, but all flights from there to US seem to require layover in London or Paris, which makes them useless (even few hours at EU or UK airport is enough to "taint" the whole trip).
How would that work ? Croatia is a EU member.
Croatia is an EU member, but not a Schengen zone country. The ban is on Schengen zone countries, not on the EU.
I'm thinking maybe Egypt, would be nice to get to see the pyramids and culture.
