Useful tips for your trip
- Save your accommodation address offline. Keep the address in French or Arabic as well as a map pin, especially if you are staying in the Medina.
- Keep your flight number handy. It helps your pickup provider or hotel coordinate with you if the arrival time changes.
- Leave time for border and baggage formalities. Your landing time is not the same as the time you will exit the terminal.
- Check the return airport journey ahead of time. Ask your airline how early to arrive and confirm current check-in and bag-drop deadlines.
