Maximize space by bringing travel-sized toiletries, donning your bulkiest clothing, and coordinating outfits ahead of time. This strategy also eliminates 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 engaged, download TV shows, movies, music, or podcasts beforehand, and consider bringing along a book. Remember to fully charge all your devices prior to boarding.
  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—for even short or domestic flights, it’s advisable to arrive 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 while saving money at the airport.

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