Maximize space by using mini toiletries, wearing your bulkiest clothing, and planning outfits strategically. This approach also allows you to avoid the wait at baggage claim upon arrival.
  • Bring your own entertainment—many short-haul flights might not provide in-flight entertainment. Download your favorite TV shows, movies, music, or podcasts ahead of time, and consider bringing a book to keep yourself entertained. Remember to charge your devices fully before you board.

  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—aim to reach 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 some extra time, take the opportunity to explore the shops, grab a coffee, or unwind at the gate or in a departure lounge if you have access. Airport Wi-Fi is generally free and available.
