Air Arabia onward travel

Air Arabia checks your passport and travel documents at security and again before you board, and says it is your responsibility to find out whether you need a visa or evidence of onward travel.

How this airline usually checks

Air Arabia's Conditions of Carriage state that your passport and travel documents are checked as you go through the security screening point at the airport and again before you board the aircraft. The airline also tells passengers it is their responsibility to find out from the relevant embassies or consulates whether they need a passport, visa, other travel document, health document, or evidence of onward travel.^[1]

• Your passport and travel documents are checked at the security screening point and again before you board.
• You are expected to have confirmed in advance whether your destination requires a visa or evidence of onward travel.
• If you cannot show the documents the destination requires, boarding can be refused.

When to be ready

Have your documents ready before you reach security and again at the gate, where a valid onward reservation covers the check.

Routes where checks are more likely

• Matters most on Air Arabia routes across the Middle East, North Africa, South Asia, and Europe, where the airline operates as a low-cost carrier.
• Most relevant for one-way and short-stay arrivals into countries that ask for proof of onward travel.
