Save space by using travel-sized toiletries, wearing your bulkiest clothing, and coordinating your outfits efficiently. This 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. 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 reusable water bottle to stay hydrated and save money at the airport.

Full-service airlines often provide free seat selection once online check-in opens, which typically occurs 24–48 hours before your flight. Some airlines allow seat selection even earlier than this.
  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—make sure to arrive at least 3 hours before your departure for international flights to accommodate check-in, security, and immigration processes.
  • Relax at the airport—if you find yourself with extra time, 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.
