This approach also allows you to bypass the wait at baggage claim upon arrival.

Some airlines may even allow seat selection earlier than this.

• Relax at the airport—if you have some 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. Airport Wi-Fi is generally free and readily available.
