Tips for short-haul flights to La Plume

This strategy 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 occupied, download TV shows, movies, music, or podcasts beforehand, and consider bringing a book. Remember to charge your devices fully before you board.
  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—for short or domestic flights, it’s advisable to get to the airport at least 1.5 to 2 hours before your departure, allowing time for traffic and security lines.

  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—make sure to arrive at least 3 hours before your departure for international flights. This will give you ample time for check-in, security, and immigration procedures.
  • Relax at the airport—if you find yourself with extra time, take the opportunity to explore the shops, grab a coffee, or unwind 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 to sync your body clock by changing your watch and sleep schedule to align with your destination's time zone. Aim to sleep or stay awake during the flight according to the local time at your arrival destination to help minimize jet lag.
