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. To keep yourself entertained, download TV shows, movies, music, or podcasts ahead of time, and consider bringing a book. Remember to fully charge your devices before you board.

  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—aim to be at the airport at least 3 hours prior to departure for international flights to accommodate check-in, security screening, and immigration procedures.
  • Relax at the airport—if you have some spare time, take the opportunity to explore the shops, visit a coffee shop, or unwind at your gate or in a departure lounge if you have access. Airport Wi-Fi is generally free and available.
