  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—aim to arrive at the airport at least 3 hours prior to departure for international flights to accommodate check-in, security, and immigration procedures.
  • Relax at the airport—if you find yourself with 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.
