Return/onward ticket requirment

Post by Radred »

Hey :)

I have just booked a one-way flight from Frankfurt to Tobago (with Condor). I also found the information that certain visitors (such as me - Polish) have to present a proof of onward ticket reservation upon arrival.

I would like to stay a week or two in Tobago and then take a ferry from Trinidad to Guiria, Venezuela or simply fly to Venezuela or Guyana.

I do not have a ferry ticket yet, but I guess I will have to book it in advance.. (still, I would prefer to be flexible with dates, my further plans etc.)

Does anyone have some experiences with getting into Tobago and how strictly the "onward ticket" condition is checked?

Thanks a lot in advance,
Rad

I would nit risk anything. if you cant book the ferry and pre book a flight, you might be able to change the ticket if you want to stay longer in T6T. even during my "struggle" for residency they always made a fuss when I reentered the country after being back in germany. always let me in, but then a again I am not polish :wink:
I hope all works out for you!

Hi

As far I know, and have seen during my travelling in the W.I, all Islands seems to demand an on-going ticket or a return-ticket, I believe T&T also have that rule.
If you haven´t got some info about this, I would recommend you to check with the Embassy of T&T or Tourist Information, local or on the Internet.
Don´t go on a one-way ticket to Tobago without checking the legal rules for a visitor, doesn´t Condor know about this?

question is: does condor care? if you go one way and they dont let you in, condor takes you back and you gotta pay again :lol:
hoestly, if you decide to go to venezuela by plane with caribbean airways book a ticket and if you like to stay longer it should be no trouble to change it....

You sould at least have an iternary / schedule for an onwards flight or a ferry ticket.

Tickets for the ferry to Guiria / Venezuela are sold at "Pier One", Chaguaramas, Trinidad.
I am not sure if you can purchase a ticket from abroad.

Check
