Landing Cards

Many people forget to fill in landing cards on the way back and returning from Sal. If you don’t get one from the airline when travelling to your chosen airport you must pick one up at the airport before joining the queue to catch your next flight, or you’ll be sent back to get a form and then you will have to re-join the queue again.

On some of the indirect flights to Cape Verde, I can’t remember how many times I had to show tickets, boarding cards, landing cards or passports, but it seemed a lot, usually just after I had put them away in a safe place!

But apart from that if you are flying direct into Cape Verde from your home country you will just have one slip to fill in. The space at the bottom isn't big enough to take all the numbers on your passport, but the people who devisd tham hadn't thought of that before producing them.

Note: On behalf of the few Britt's on Sal, if any of you are travelling out from the UK to Sal, please don't leave any papers/mags you have brought out with you on the plane, we would love to read them.
