Your travel documents will be checked both at check-in and when boarding. If it is determined during check-in or boarding that your travel document is not valid for a sufficient period, and you are denied boarding, the costs for an emergency document and a new ticket will be at your own expense. If, for any reason, the validity of your travel document is not properly checked during check-in, and this prevents you from applying for an emergency document in time, this is never the responsibility of Corendon. You are always responsible for having the correct travel documents. If you need to apply for an emergency document, please be aware that not every country accepts emergency documents, and the required validity may vary by country.
If you are taking medication, be sure to bring a reserve supply with you. If the use of medication is important to you, also carry an English-language statement regarding your prescribed dosage, etc., so that local doctors can assist you better in case of emergencies.
