Optimize your space by using travel-sized toiletries, wearing your bulkiest clothing, and planning versatile outfits. This approach also allows you to bypass waiting at baggage claim upon arrival.

  • 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.

  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—aim to be 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. Most airports offer free Wi-Fi that is easy to connect to.
  • Adjust to the new time zone mid-flight—begin syncing your internal clock by adjusting your watch and modifying your sleep schedule to align with your destination's time zone.
