Travel Documents
It is your responsibility to obtain and carry all required valid documents for your travel (passport, entry regulations, vaccinations, visas…) and sufficient funds to cover the length of your stay. You must check the expiration dates of these documents and renew them if necessary.
Always make sure that the way your name appears on the Air Tahiti Nui airline ticket matches your passport. It is also advisable that the other documentation you carry matches your passport name and that you identify yourself by the nationality on your passport.
Make sure your passport is valid for the required time beyond your travel dates. Be advised, certain countries require a passport to be valid for six months beyond the date of departure.
Please note, as travel documents required for entry are subject to modification without notice, it is advisable to check with the consulate of each country on your itinerary or to consult with your travel arranger before departure. Each passenger is solely responsible for understanding and possessing the correct documents for legally traveling to the countries serviced by Air Tahiti Nui.
Don't forget: Check-in required 3 hours before departure. Check-in closes one hour before departure.
