7.4 In the final days before you go
Make sure you know arrangements have been made for your arrival before you set off

Make sure you have answers to the following questions before you set off
  • Will I be met you at the airport – if so where will you meet?
  • If not, how do I get from the airport to where I will be staying?
  • Will there be somewhere for me (and the family) to stay initially?
  • What do I need to know about immigration and customs procedures?
  • Do I need to have some local currency with me for any of these matters?
  • Do I have an emergency contact telephone number of my host, in case of need?
