  • Pack light and skip checked bags—when flying with budget airlines, traveling with just a carry-on is often more cost-effective. Maximize space by using mini toiletries, wearing your bulkiest attire, and coordinating outfits efficiently. This approach also allows you to bypass the wait at baggage claim upon arrival.
  • Bring your own entertainment—many short-haul flights may lack in-flight entertainment options. Download TV shows, movies, music, or podcasts ahead of time, and don’t forget to bring a book to keep yourself occupied. Ensure your devices are fully charged before you board.
  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—even for short or domestic flights, aim to arrive at least 1.5 to 2 hours prior to departure, taking into account traffic and security lines.
  • Bring your own snacks and water—pack snacks and a reusable water bottle to stay hydrated and save money while at the airport.

  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—aim to arrive at least 3 hours before departure for international flights to ensure you have enough time for check-in, security, and immigration procedures.
  • Relax at the airport—if you have 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.
