Tips for short-haul flights to Risan

Pack light and skip checked bags—when flying with budget airlines, it's often more economical to travel with just a carry-on. Maximize space by using mini toiletries, wearing your bulkiest clothing, and planning your outfits wisely. This also allows you to bypass the wait at baggage claim upon arrival.
Bring your own entertainment—many short-haul flights might not provide in-flight entertainment. Pre-download your favorite TV shows, movies, music, or podcasts, and consider bringing a book to keep yourself engaged. Don't forget to charge your devices fully before you board.
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 traffic and security lines.
Bring your own snacks and water—pack your own snacks and a refillable water bottle to stay hydrated and save money while at the airport.

Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—make sure to arrive at the airport at least 3 hours prior to departure for international flights. This will give you enough time for check-in, security, and immigration procedures.
