  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—aim to reach the airport at least 3 hours before your departure for international flights, which will give you ample time for check-in, security, and immigration.
  • Relax at the airport—if you have some extra time, 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 syncing your body clock by changing your watch and adapting your sleep schedule to align with your destination's time zone. Try to rest or stay awake during the flight according to the local time at your arrival destination to help minimize jet lag.
