  • 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 to account for traffic and security lines.
  • Bring your own snacks and water—packing snacks and a refillable water bottle will help you stay hydrated and save money at the airport.

  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—aim to get to 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 extra time, take a moment 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.
