I think most of the info is being given by AC and not the travel agent

Maybe he was assuming that the following connection is illegal? CDG-BEG?
You should be able to check it all the way through. AC has baggage interline agreement with Air Serbia. Sound like they are really confused when it comes to what the MCT is. Id suggest having a carry-on bag with all the essentials if AC screws up delivering the bags so you have clothes should the bag gets delayed

I wonder if its the airline name/code issue. JU is still listed under the old name Jat Airways so maybe they don't realize Jat Airways and Air Serbia are the same airline?

AC's baggage limits and fees would apply to the whole journey as its the overwater carrier but lost/delayed bags are handled by the airline of the last leg of the one way journey. Also are you sure the travel agent issued the whole reservation under 1 ticket number.
