Maximize your packing space by using mini toiletries, wearing your bulkiest attire, and coordinating outfits effectively. This approach also helps you avoid delays at baggage claim once you arrive.

  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—for short or domestic flights, it's advisable to arrive at least 1.5 to 2 hours prior to departure, taking into account potential traffic and security lines.
  • Bring your own snacks and water—pack some snacks and a refillable water bottle to stay hydrated while also saving money at the airport.

  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—aim to arrive at the airport at least 3 hours before international flight departures to ensure enough time for check-in, security, and immigration.
  • Relax at the airport—if you have some extra time, explore the shops, visit a coffee shop, or unwind at the gate or in a departure lounge if you have access. Airport Wi-Fi is generally free and available.
