Before You Fly

Essential Travel Tips

🛡️

Security & Safety

Keep valuables in your carry-on and stay alert in arrivals halls — advice that holds at every airport in the region, not just one.

💱

Currency & Cards

Each country here uses its own currency. ATMs inside the terminal are usually the easiest way to get local cash on arrival — check current rates before you fly.

📱

SIM Cards & WiFi

Most major airports in the region sell local SIM cards landside in Arrivals, and many offer free terminal WiFi — confirm on the day, as providers vary by country.

🚗

Car Hire Tips

Southern Africa drives on the left. An international driving licence is worth carrying, and car hire counters are available at the region's larger airports.

⏰

Departure Times

Check-in windows vary by airline and airport — always confirm your recommended arrival time directly with the airline before you travel.

✈️

Domestic Booking

Compare fares directly on each airline's own site. See a country's own airport page for the carriers that actually serve it.
