Dear brothers and sisters,
Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullaahi wa Barakaatuhu.
By the Grace of Allah SWT, as we draw closer to implementing our intentions for Hajj this year, most brothers and sisters are starting to look for information online.
The primary thoughts are usually around cost and services, although in our experiences, these are definitely not the only measures for planning a successful Hajj. There are other critical factors that we will also expand on.
Nonetheless, the package that we are currently putting together for New Zealand and Fiji residents is as follows:
• Hotel in Makkah by the Haram on the first row e.g. Clock Tower, Millenium etc.
• No Aziziyah or Shishah stay (these are 6 Km from the Haram)
• Full 40 salaat in Madinah
• Around 23 days in Saudi – This can be shortened as per individual customer needs
• VIP services and facilities in Mina during the Hajj days
• Fly into Makkah and fly out of Madinah or vice versa
• Half board (Breakfast and dinner in hotels and full board in (Mina)
• Transfers to and from Airports, Hajj etc. as per usual
• Preliminary Itinerary will be posted on our website by the end of December.
We should Insha Allah be able to provide final full details with pricing around the end of January 2019. Package price last year was NZD 10 560.
As for the other critical factors, they are how well you are prepared psychologically, spiritually and physically. We are planning to run a series of articles and blogs on our website in order to get you and ourselves well prepared.
We will also manage expectations through online communication to you regarding changes we have made since last year to improve our services and also what you should be prepared for.
May Allah SWT accept all our efforts.

Airlines and airport regulations when departing for Hajj

Assalamu Alaikum my dear brothers and sisters,

There has been a communique from the airlines in preparation for our departure. It concerns rules that will be applied at the airport.

Basically, all you need to ensure is:

1. Every Hajj PAX baggage must have a coloured identification tag / Sticker indicating the flight / Date, Name, Nationality, Passport Number affixed on the baggage. -> (This will apply when we board at Auckland Airport. All it means is that this information must be written in your normal baggage tag before you check baggage in).
2. Hajj Pilgrims are not allowed to carry:
• Acuminate “GORO” (Devil Fruit)
• Accessories and consumable goods that exceed personal use intended for selling or marketing.
3. Hajj pilgrims are allowed ONLY to carry a 5 litre container of Zamzam water per pilgrim produced by the Custodian of the Holy Mosques Zamzam Project. Zamzam Water Containers must be well wrapped properly by the wrapping company at the airport.
4. Hajj pilgrims who carry jewellery or any cash amount equivalent to more than SAR 60,000.00 must fill the Declaration forms on Arrival & Departure.
