Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—even for short or domestic flights, it’s advisable to arrive at least 1.5 to 2 hours prior to departure, taking into account potential 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.

Select your seat in advance—for longer flights, choosing your seat is essential for comfort. Full-service airlines often allow seat selection for free once online check-in begins, typically 24–48 hours before your flight. Some airlines provide the option to select a seat even earlier.
Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—ensure you arrive 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 a moment to explore the shops, visit a coffee shop, or unwind at the gate or in a departure lounge if you have access. Airport Wi-Fi is generally free and available.
