Airports can be quite crowded and hectic, you should instruct your child to wait at the airport’s information desk should he/she not locate our representative on arrival.
It is very important that you or your child contacts the person who will pick up the night before to confirm the flight details.
Your child needs to have his/her phone on the day of arrival to communicate through Whatsapp with the person picking up at the airport (contact on booking confirmation).
Your child will often be one of many children arriving at the airport to be escorted to camp. Whilst our representatives will always try to arrange for onward transport to camp with the minimum of delay, it should be understood that your child may be required to wait at the airport before he/she commences the onward journey, due to flight delays affecting other children and/or difficult traffic conditions.
