Travel with peace of mind

Register on Travellers Online

At Connections, we make sure you are fully prepared before departure, so you can enjoy your holiday to the fullest with complete peace of mind.

That’s why we strongly recommend all our customers to register on the Travellers Online platform of the Belgian Federal Public Service Foreign Affairs before leaving.

Why register before departure?

  • You can be contacted more quickly in case of an emergency (such as a natural disaster or crisis)

  • Belgian authorities can assist you more efficiently on site

  • You receive useful and up-to-date information about your destination

Stay well informed

Before departure, always check the latest updates via official channels:

  • Find contact details of Belgian services abroad

  • Consult up-to-date information on health, formalities and practical matters

Practical Preparations & Important Considerations

  • Valid passport / ID

  • Visa – ESTA – ETA if required

  • Driving licence + credit card (for car rental)

  • Vouchers & tickets

  • Printed copy of your e-visa if required

Flights

Make sure to check your flight details and check in online from 24 hours before departure.
Arrive at the airport on time:

  • Europe: minimum 2 hours before departure

  • Intercontinental: 3.5 to 4 hours before departure

Luggage
  • Check your airline’s baggage policy

  • Liquids in hand luggage: maximum 100 ml

We recommend travelling with good insurance coverage.
Note: coverage via credit cards is often limited and rarely includes full assistance.
Good news: assistance insurance can usually still be added shortly before departure.
