Tips for short-haul flights to Fairmont Hot Springs

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 often proves to be more economical. Maximize your packing efficiency by using mini toiletries, donning your bulkiest clothing, and coordinating your outfits thoughtfully. This strategy also allows you to bypass the wait at baggage claim upon arrival.
  • Bring your own entertainment—many short-haul flights do not provide in-flight entertainment options. To keep yourself entertained, download TV shows, movies, music, or podcasts ahead of time, and consider bringing a book. Don’t forget to ensure your devices are fully charged before you board.
  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—for short or domestic flights, it’s advisable to arrive at least 1.5 to 2 hours prior to departure, taking into account potential 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 essential for comfort. Full-service airlines often provide complimentary seat selection once online check-in opens, typically 24–48 hours before your flight. Some airlines may allow seat selection even earlier.
  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—aim to arrive at the airport at least 3 hours prior to departure for international flights. This will give you sufficient time for check-in, security screening, and immigration procedures.
  • Relax at the airport—if you have some extra time, take the opportunity to explore the shops, enjoy a coffee, or unwind at the gate or in a departure lounge, if you have access. Airport Wi-Fi is generally free and readily available.
  • Adjust to the new time zone mid-flight—begin to synchronize your body clock by changing your watch and sleep schedule to align with your destination's time zone. Try to either sleep or stay awake on the flight according to the local time of your arrival to help minimize jet lag.
