Maximize space by using mini toiletries, wearing your heaviest clothing, and planning your outfits wisely. This also allows you to bypass the wait at baggage claim upon arrival.

  • 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—ensure you arrive at 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 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 often free and available.
  • Adjust to the new time zone mid-flight—begin syncing your body clock by changing your watch and sleep schedule to correspond with your destination's time zone. Aim to sleep or stay awake on the flight according to the local time at your arrival destination to help minimize jet lag.
