Maximize your space by using mini toiletries, wearing your heaviest clothing, and planning your outfits wisely. This also helps you avoid the hassle of waiting at baggage claim when you arrive.
  • Bring your own entertainment—many short-haul flights may lack in-flight entertainment. Download your favorite TV shows, movies, music, or podcasts ahead of time, and consider bringing a book to keep yourself entertained. Remember to charge your devices fully before you board.
  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—even for short or domestic flights, it's wise to get to the airport at least 1.5 to 2 hours before your departure, taking into account traffic and security lines.
  • Bring your own snacks and water—pack some snacks and a refillable water bottle to stay hydrated and save money while at the airport.

  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—aim to reach the airport at least 3 hours prior to departure for international flights to accommodate check-in, security, and immigration procedures.
  • 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 have access. Airport Wi-Fi is generally free and available for use.
  • Adjust to the new time zone mid-flight—begin to sync your body clock by changing your watch and sleep pattern to align with your destination's time zone. Try to sleep or stay awake during the flight according to the local time of your arrival to minimize jet lag.
