Maximize space by using mini toiletries, wearing your bulkiest clothing, and planning your outfits efficiently. 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 at the airport.

  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—make sure to reach the airport at least 3 hours before your flight for international travel to accommodate check-in, security, and immigration procedures.
  • Relax at the airport—if you have some extra time, take the opportunity to explore the shops, grab a coffee, or unwind at your gate or in a departure lounge if you have access. Airport Wi-Fi is generally free and available.
