The short answer
Before booking the extras, check what your flight, accommodation, bank card and existing insurance already include. Confirm your airport transfer, documents and cancellation terms. Buy additional services only when they fit your trip and the current terms cover your situation.
Arrival: transfer or rental car?
Compare a hotel pickup, private transfer and car rental for your actual airport and accommodation. Welcome Pickups and Kiwitaxi are options to check; this site does not guarantee that either covers every island. Confirm the total price, passenger and luggage capacity, child seats if needed, waiting time and late-arrival policy.
Insurance: read what is already covered
Check your existing policy before buying another. Compare territorial cover, medical and cancellation limits, excesses, activities, exclusions and residence eligibility directly with the insurer. We do not collect medical information, quote policies or advise which insurance is suitable for you.
Activities: compare the whole experience
GetYourGuide and Viator can be starting points for tours. Compare meeting points, group size, included transport and equipment, accessibility and cancellation terms. Read the operator details rather than choosing only by a headline price. We do not claim one provider always pays more commission or has the best experience.
If a flight is disrupted
Keep your booking documents and the airline’s messages. Check the airline’s own claims route first. AirHelp is a paid assistance option whose eligibility rules and fees you should review before signing. Compensation is not automatic; the applicable rules and facts of your flight determine what may be available. Do not send claim documents through this site.
