  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—make it a point to arrive at least 3 hours before departure for international flights to accommodate check-in, security checks, and immigration processes.
  • Relax at the airport—if you find yourself with extra time, take a stroll through the shops, grab a coffee, or unwind at the gate or in a departure lounge if you have access. Most airports offer free Wi-Fi for your convenience.
