  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—make sure to arrive at least 3 hours before departure for international flights. This will give you enough time for check-in, security, and immigration procedures.
  • Relax at the airport—if you have additional 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.
