Okay, so I needed to get to Seychelles, specifically Mahe Island. Let me tell you, figuring out the airport situation was the first step, and it wasn’t as straightforward as you might think!
First, I started with a simple search, just typing in “airport Seychelles Mahe”. I wanted to see what would pop up, you know, get the lay of the land.
The search results showed me that the main airport is called Seychelles International Airport, and its code is SEZ. It is the main way to get in and out.
Figuring Out the Flights
Knowing the airport code (SEZ) made searching for flights way easier.
Used a flight comparison, put in my departure city and SEZ as the destination.
Saw a bunch of options, different airlines, different layovers. Some were crazy long, like 24+ hours! No thanks.
Narrowed it down to a few flights that had reasonable travel times and weren’t ridiculously expensive.
Booked the flight that worked best for my schedule and budget. I made sure to double-check the baggage allowance – don’t want any surprises at the airport!
Getting Ready for Arrival
I went back to searching and checking, I wanted to know what to expect when I landed.
- Checked for visa requirements. Luckily, for my nationality, I didn’t need a visa for a short tourist visit. Score!
- Looked into transportation options from the airport. Found out there are taxis, buses, and car rentals available.
- Read arrival tips. Found out what kind of electriv plugs they use.
I eventually decided to take a taxi to my hotel because it seemed like the easiest option after a long flight. I made a note of the approximate taxi fare so I wouldn’t get ripped off.
So yeah, that’s basically how I handled the whole “airport Seychelles Mahe” thing. It was a bit of research, a bit of planning, but in the end, it all worked out pretty smoothly. I landed, grabbed a taxi, and got to my hotel without any major issues. The most important thing I found out was that a bit of preparation goes a long way!
