Before you pack
3 points
- Must inform Aircalin at booking and at least 3 business days before departure, and present proof of a sport license for the equipment - skipping this risks refusal at check-in
- The reduced 10kg allowance on Fiji/Wallis/Port-Vila routes catches travelers off guard if they assume the standard 23kg applies system-wide
- The extra sports allowance only applies on direct Aircalin-operated flights, not codeshare/interline segments
