  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—make sure to arrive at the airport at least 3 hours before departure for international flights, allowing sufficient time for check-in, security, and immigration procedures.
  • Relax at the airport—if you have some extra time, take the opportunity to browse the shops, enjoy a coffee, or unwind at the gate or in a departure lounge, if you have access. Most airports offer free Wi-Fi that you can use.
