Once attendees arrive to Johannesburg, there will be another quick flight aboard Airlink to Livingstone, Zambia. There is only 1 flight per day to Zambia, so attendees will need to ensure they arrive to Johannesburg in time for the Airlink flight.

All flights booked from home to Johannesburg should arrive in Johannesburg no later than 08h00 on July 18.
Airlink flight from Johannesburg to Livingstone, Zambia will depart at 11h00

Luggage allowance on all Airlink flights is three (3) checked bags weighing no more than 44 lbs (20kg) per two (2) people and one piece of carry-on luggage weighing no more than 15 lbs (7kg) per person. NO EXCEPTIONS! The option to have one personal item – purse or backpack may be available, but not guaranteed, so we recommend planning for everything to fit within the above requirements.

Upon arrival into Livingstone, Zambia, all attendees will need to obtain a visa. Once exiting the plane all attendees will be directed to do this by our in-country vendor, Niche.

Once the 3-night stay at Livingstone, Victoria Falls has completed, all attendees will board a chartered flight from Zambia to Kapama. Since attendees are leaving one country (Zambia) and entering another (South Africa), there will be 2 flights to get all attendees to the final destination – Kapama!

Reminder: The luggage allowance requirements remain in effect for all Airlink and chartered flights, so please be sure to pack as light as possible.
As we do not have passport copies, we need to be sure that names provided are as per passport and that their passports are valid until at least 25 January 2024. I know that we have asked for expiry dates, I just want to highlight that we wouldn’t pick up on typos if there are any.

Once the 3-night stay at Kapama River Lodge has been completed, all attendees will board a flight from Hoedspruit to Johannesburg. There are two separate departure flight times as the aircraft are small and the departure times are staggered and dependent on your international departure flight.

The Airlink flights will depart Hoedspruit airport at either 12h05 or 14h20 on July 24 back to Johannesburg.
Depending on the Airlink flight you are placed on will determine what time your flight back home from Johannesburg will need to be.

Travel Insurance

Travel insurance is excluded and has not been taken out on your behalf. Each participant is responsible for ensuring that they have adequate travel and/or medical insurance for the duration of the trip (18 to 24 July 2023, both days included. Note that these are the land only dates and your specific departure and arrival dates need to be taken into account and included in your actual travel dates) and for travel to both Zambia and South Africa. While it is not a requirement to enter into either country, it is highly recommended as private medical treatment is extremely expensive and would be for your own account should you fall ill or be injured. It is also recommended that you include cover for cancellation due to a positive Covid-19 test result, baggage delays, loss or theft of personal items etc.
