  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—aim to reach the airport at least 3 hours before your departure for international flights. This will give you ample time for check-in, security procedures, and immigration.
  • Relax at the airport—if you find yourself with extra time, take the opportunity to explore the shops, enjoy a coffee at a café, or unwind at your gate or in a departure lounge, if you have access. Most airports offer free Wi-Fi that is readily available.
  • Adjust to the new time zone mid-flight—begin to sync your body clock by changing your watch and modifying your sleep schedule to align with your destination's time zone. Try to sleep or stay awake during the flight according to the local time of your arrival to help minimize jet lag.
