Tips for short-haul flights to Alliance

For quick getaways, efficiency is key. Here is how to make your short-haul journey smoother:

  • Pack light and skip checked bags—when flying with budget airlines, traveling with just a carry-on is often the more economical choice. Optimize your packing by using travel-sized toiletries, wearing your heaviest clothing, and planning your outfits wisely. This approach also allows you to bypass waiting at baggage claim upon arrival.
  • Bring your own entertainment—many short-haul flights may lack in-flight entertainment options. To stay occupied, download your favorite TV shows, movies, music, or podcasts ahead of time and consider bringing a book. Remember to charge your devices fully before you board.
  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—even for short or domestic flights, it’s advisable to arrive at least 1.5 to 2 hours prior to your departure, taking into account traffic and security lines.
  • Bring your own snacks and water—pack some snacks and a refillable water bottle to stay hydrated and save money while at the airport.

  • Select your seat in advance—for longer flights, choosing your seat is crucial for comfort. Full-service airlines often provide free seat selection once online check-in begins, typically 24–48 hours prior to your flight. Some airlines allow you to select your seat even earlier.
  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—aim to get to the airport at least 3 hours before departure for international flights to accommodate check-in, security, and immigration procedures.
  • Relax at the airport—if you have extra time, take the opportunity to browse the shops, find a coffee shop, or unwind at the gate or in a departure lounge if available. Airport Wi-Fi is generally free and accessible.
  • Adjust to the new time zone mid-flight—begin syncing your body clock by changing your watch and adjusting your sleep schedule to align with your destination's time zone. Try to sleep or stay awake during the flight according to the local time at your arrival destination to help minimize jet lag.
