Boarding on time

Having checked in, it is essential that all our passengers, whether travelling with or without luggage, be at their flight's boarding gate 20 minutes before departure time.

Please bear the following in mind:

• It is important to check that you have up-to-date travel documentation with you (ID card and/or passport in the case of origin and destination countries in the EU and the Schengen area; passport and visas for all other origin and destination countries).
• Carriage of luggage within the allowance limits.
• Times are calculated to enable the transport operator to fulfil all the requisites that must be met prior to the aeroplane gaining clearance.
• In the event of a passenger not having completed the necessary formalities within the specified deadline, they will not be admitted to their flight, in which respect the transport operator will not be held liable.

Aeroplanes cannot be delayed due to the late arrival of passengers. Moreover, the airline may apply to such passengers regulations on cancellation and failure to show, entailing certain costs being calculated on the basis of the fare.
