    Hi, it depends on what the reason for rejection is, for example, "The evidence does not satisfy the requirement for sufficient funds." Suggestions are: where applicable, other evidence of incentives to return includes: 1. ownership of fixed assets/properties/business. upload proof of ownership 2. family members that are under ur responsibility left behind during ur trip e.g elderly parents, spouse, children. provide list in excel name, age, relation, status(schooling, retired, not working, etc) and upload birth certs, ID etc. 3. significant savings statements, unit trusts as proof of your incentive to return. 4. loan statements as proof of your commitments to take care of like housing, hire purchase, study loans, etc. 5. any overseas travel history as proof that u are a responsible traveller and have always obeyed the immigration rules of the countries u have been to. 6. provide a simple itinerary of your planned trip such as date, location, activities for each day. they want to see that u actually have a tour plan and will contribute to their tourism economy by visiting all those places. a cover letter would also help to introduce urself & explain your overall travel purpose.

I assume go through border control, pick up luggage, go to another terminal North maybe, and then checkin? It will nice that the airlines make this easier for us without self transfer. The details is below.
