This page covers a direct flight to Western Sahara. If your route connects through a third country, that country may require its own transit visa — sometimes even for a short stop inside the airport between flights (a layover). Transit rules depend on your specific routing, so check the country you connect through separately, or analyse your full itinerary.
You're travelling to Western Sahara (EH). Your home cellular plan may or may not include data abroad — check your carrier's international options before you fly. An eSIM is a low-commitment alternative if your plan doesn't cover the destination or charges high roaming rates.
Your itinerary touches Gambia (GM), where malaria transmission occurs. Transmission is often region-limited within a country (e.g. coastal vs highland zones) and varies by season. Discuss prophylaxis with a travel medicine clinician — the right antimalarial depends on the specific region, your medical history, and any medications you take.
