Tips for short-haul flights to Pugwash

  • Pack light and skip checked bags—especially with budget airlines, traveling with just a carry-on is often more economical. Maximize space by choosing mini toiletries, wearing your heaviest clothes, and planning your outfits wisely. This strategy also helps you avoid the wait at baggage claim once you arrive.
  • Bring your own entertainment—many short-haul flights may lack in-flight entertainment options. Download your favorite TV shows, movies, music, or podcasts ahead of time, and consider bringing a book to keep yourself entertained. Remember to fully charge your devices before you board.
  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—for both short and 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 your favorite snacks and a refillable water bottle to stay hydrated and save money while at the airport.

Full-service airlines often provide complimentary seat selection once online check-in begins, typically 24–48 hours before your flight. Some airlines may allow you to select your seat even earlier than this.
  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—make sure to arrive at the airport at least 3 hours prior to departure for international flights to ensure sufficient time for check-in, security, and immigration procedures.
  • Relax at the airport—if you find yourself with extra time, take the opportunity to browse the shops, grab a coffee, or unwind at the gate or in a departure lounge if you have access. Most airports offer free Wi-Fi that is typically easy to connect to.
  • Adjust to the new time zone mid-flight—begin to align your body clock by changing your watch and adjusting your sleep schedule to reflect your destination's time zone. Try to sleep or stay awake during the flight according to the local time of your arrival destination to help minimize jet lag.
