Some airlines may provide the option to select seats even earlier.
  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—aim to arrive at the airport at least 3 hours before your departure for international flights to accommodate check-in, security, and immigration processes.
  • Relax at the airport—if time permits, explore the shops, grab a coffee, or unwind at the gate or in a departure lounge if you have access. Airport Wi-Fi is usually free and available.
  • Adjust to the new time zone mid-flight—begin to sync your body clock by changing your watch and modifying your sleep schedule to align with your destination's time zone.
