Maximize your space by using mini toiletries, wearing your bulkiest garments, and planning your outfits effectively. This strategy also allows you to bypass the wait at baggage claim upon arrival.
Bring your own entertainment—many short-haul flights may not provide in-flight entertainment options. To keep yourself engaged, download TV shows, movies, music, or podcasts ahead of time and consider bringing a book. Remember to charge your devices fully 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 prior to departure, taking into account potential traffic and security lines.
Bring your own snacks and water—pack some snacks and a refillable water bottle to stay hydrated and save money while at the airport.

Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—aim to arrive at the airport at least 3 hours before departure for international flights to accommodate check-in, security, and immigration processes.
Relax at the airport—if you have some extra time, take a moment to explore the shops, enjoy a coffee at a café, 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 syncing 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 at your arrival destination to help minimize jet lag.
