Directors, crews and talent travelling to shoots in Pakistan and abroad.
Industry · Media and advertising
Travel management for media and advertising companies
Production houses, broadcasters and agencies travel with crews and equipment: shoots in the Gulf, Türkiye and the northern areas, award shows and festivals abroad, and client presentations. Excess baggage, equipment rules and last-minute changes are part of every trip.
Travel patterns
How media and advertising organisations in Pakistan travel
Equipment
Cameras, lighting and sound kits that need excess baggage or cargo and, sometimes, temporary import documents.
Festivals and awards
Teams attending festivals, award shows and client pitches abroad.
What matters
What a media and advertising travel programme needs
- Excess baggage and equipment rules agreed with airlines before booking
- Temporary import documents for equipment, checked for each country
- Visas for crews, with production letters
- Flexible plans for weather and schedule changes
- Reports by project and client
Check before travel: visa rules, fees, processing times and event dates change without notice. This page was checked on 11 November 2026 against the ICC World Chambers Federation (ATA Carnets). Confirm on the official source, or ask us to check for your trip, before you book anything non-refundable.
Equipment
Taking equipment abroad
Professional equipment can be taken abroad temporarily, but each country sets its own customs rules. Some accept ATA Carnets, the international temporary-admission document run by the ICC World Chambers Federation; others need a local customs bond or declaration. Check with the customs authorities of each country, and the ICC’s official list of ATA countries, before the shoot.
Crews
Crew travel
Crews travel in groups with heavy baggage and changing call sheets. We book seats together, pre-agree baggage with airlines, and keep the crew list and visa status in one place.
Locations
Shoots in Pakistan’s north
Shoots in Gilgit-Baltistan and the north depend on weather and road conditions. We plan buffer days, flights to Skardu or Gilgit where they operate, and road back-ups.
Talent
Travel for talent and clients
Productions also move talent, clients and agency teams, each with different needs. Talent travel may follow contract terms on class of travel and hotels; client travel is often billed to a project. We keep each group’s rules separate under one production code, book seats and rooms to match the call sheet, and give producers one itinerary showing everyone’s arrival, departure and hotel. Our 24/7 team handles changes when shoots move for weather or light.
For festivals and award shows, we book early, because hotels near the venue fill months ahead in festival week.
