Some airlines may permit seat selection even earlier.
  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—aim to arrive at the airport at least 3 hours before your international flight departs to accommodate check-in, security, and immigration procedures.
  • Relax at the airport—if you have some extra time, take the opportunity to explore the stores, grab a coffee, or unwind at the gate or in a departure lounge, if available. Most airports offer free Wi-Fi that is easy to access.
