Maximize space by using travel-sized toiletries, wearing your heaviest clothing, and planning your outfits wisely. This strategy also allows you to bypass waiting at baggage claim upon arrival.
  • Bring your own entertainment—many short-haul flights do not provide in-flight entertainment options. To keep yourself occupied, download your favorite TV shows, movies, music, or podcasts beforehand, and consider bringing a book. 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 before your departure, taking into account potential traffic delays and security lines.
  • Bring your own snacks and water—pack your own snacks and a refillable water bottle to stay hydrated and save money while at the airport.

  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—make sure to arrive at least 3 hours before your departure for international flights to accommodate check-in, security procedures, and immigration.
  • Relax at the airport—if you have some extra time, take the opportunity to explore the shops, grab a coffee, or unwind at the gate or in a departure lounge if you're able to access one. Airport Wi-Fi is generally free and available.
