The extra baggage allowance must be shown on the passenger ticket. Travel agents must issue an allowance on the ticket at time of issuance. Divers who do not have the excess baggage allowance shown on their ticket may be charged.

cess baggage rates vary depending on destination, rate range from 1% of the full economy fare per kilo upto 1% of the business class fare per kilo. In addition exchange rates vary etc. Suggest passengers always check before departure to obtain the rates charged per kilo.

| Equipment carriage requirements |
We ask that all dive equipment (cylinders/tanks) are emptied, knives and sharp implements must be checked in - not in cabin baggage.
|
| Specialist camera carriage requirements |
Specialist camera equipment forms part of the baggage allowances. One word of warning would be to observe restricted cabin baggage dimensions as stipulated in the passenger ticket.
|
| Current security advice |
As highlighted earlier, with the added security and checks being carried out worldwide we strongly advise passengers to restrict their cabin baggage to the bare necessities. This assists everyone in speeding up the security check process carried out by the airport authorities. |
