Tips for short-haul flights to Harbor

Optimize space by using travel-sized toiletries, wearing your largest clothing items, and coordinating outfits ahead of time. This strategy also allows you to bypass the wait at baggage claim upon arrival.
  • Bring your own entertainment—many short-haul flights might lack in-flight entertainment options. Prepare by downloading your favorite TV shows, movies, music, or podcasts in advance, and consider bringing a book to keep yourself engaged. Remember to charge your devices fully before you board.
  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—even for short or domestic flights, it’s advisable to reach the airport at least 1.5 to 2 hours prior to your departure, taking into account potential traffic and security lines.
  • Bring your own snacks and water—pack some snacks and a reusable water bottle to stay hydrated and save on costs at the airport.
