  • Bring your own entertainment—many short-haul flights might not provide in-flight entertainment. To stay engaged, download your favorite TV shows, movies, music, or podcasts ahead of time, and consider bringing a book. Also, make sure 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 prior to departure, taking into account traffic and security lines.
  • Bring your own snacks and water—pack some snacks and a refillable water bottle to stay nourished and hydrated while saving money at the airport.

  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—aim to arrive at least 3 hours prior to departure for international flights, allowing ample time for check-in, security, and immigration procedures.
  • Relax at the airport—if you have some 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 readily available.
