Tips for short-haul flights to Idaho City

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, it's often more cost-effective to travel with just a carry-on. Maximize your space by using mini toiletries, wearing your heaviest clothing, and planning your outfits wisely. This approach also helps you avoid the wait at baggage claim once you arrive.
  • Bring your own entertainment—many short-haul flights typically do 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 fully charge your devices before you board.
  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—even for short or domestic flights, it's advisable to arrive at least 1.5 to 2 hours before your departure, taking into account 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.

Flying long-haul sometimes requires extra planning to ensure a comfortable journey:

  • 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 prior to your flight. Some airlines may allow you to select your seat even earlier.
  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—make it a point to arrive at the airport at least 3 hours before international flights to accommodate check-in, security, and immigration procedures.
  • Relax at the airport—if you have extra time, consider exploring the shops, grabbing a coffee, or unwinding at the gate or in a departure lounge if you have access. Airport Wi-Fi is generally free and available.
  • Adjust to the new time zone mid-flight—begin syncing your body clock by setting your watch and adjusting your sleep schedule to correspond with your destination's time zone.
