Maximize your space by using travel-sized toiletries, wearing your heaviest clothing, and coordinating your outfits effectively. This approach also helps you avoid the hassle of waiting at baggage claim upon arrival.
  • Bring your own entertainment—many short-haul flights may lack in-flight entertainment options. To keep yourself entertained, download your favorite TV shows, movies, music, or podcasts ahead of time, and consider bringing a book along. Remember to fully charge your devices before you board.

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