Maximize space by opting for mini toiletries, wearing your heaviest clothing, and planning your outfits wisely. 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 stay occupied, download your favorite 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 reach the airport at least 1.5 to 2 hours prior to departure, taking into account potential traffic and security wait times.
  • Bring your own snacks and water—pack some snacks and a refillable water bottle to stay hydrated and cut down on expenses at the airport.

  • 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 processes.
  • Relax at the airport—if you find yourself with extra time, take the opportunity to explore the shops, enjoy a coffee, or unwind at the gate or in a departure lounge if you have access. Airport Wi-Fi is typically free and available.
