Travel documents are your responsibility. You must ensure you have the correct travel documents for every destination (including transit/stopovers), including a valid passport and any required visa, e-visa, ETA/eTA, arrival card or entry declaration.
Passport validity: Many countries require your passport to be valid for at least 6 months beyond your intended date of departure from that country. If your passport does not meet entry rules, you may be refused boarding by the airline and/or refused entry on arrival.
Important: Visa and entry rules can change at short notice and can vary by nationality, point of entry (air/land/sea) and length/purpose of stay. The information below is general guidance only. You must verify requirements for your passport with official government websites and/or the relevant embassy/consulate before departure.
Liability: We are not responsible for costs or losses resulting from incorrect or incomplete travel documents (including denied boarding or refused entry). Standard booking terms and cancellation conditions apply.
