- The costs for a rifle (+case), including 5kg ammunition are 80,00 EUR per destination. There is NO exception.
- If the passenger holds a "through-ticket" (from place of departure up to the destination), then the rifle case(s) can be checked through to his/her final destination. A lot of passengers however prefer separate tickets, as they are cheaper, but then the luggage cannot be checked through to the final destination and it might happen that one will be charged again for the rifle case at the transit airport.
- A rifle cannot be treated the same as a normal suitcase! There is a different procedure that needs to be followed and that is why the fee for rifles is charged.
- The foreign exchange bureau is not open 24/7 and they do not accept Euro’s at the check-in, but only Namibian Dollars. They do have card machines that can be used though.
- YOU CAN PAY FOR YOUR RIFLE/CASE and AMMUNITION WHEN YOU BOOK YOUR TICKET! Ask your travel agents about this option, it can prevent a lot of hassle at the airport.
