Maximize space by using travel-sized toiletries, wearing your heaviest clothing, and planning versatile outfits. This strategy also allows you to bypass the wait at baggage claim upon arrival.
• Bring your own entertainment—since many short-haul flights do not provide in-flight entertainment, it’s wise to download TV shows, movies, music, or podcasts ahead of time and carry a book to keep yourself occupied. Remember to fully charge your devices before you board.
• Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—for even short or domestic flights, it’s advisable to get to the airport at least 1.5 to 2 hours before your departure, taking into account traffic and security lines.

• Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—make sure to arrive at the airport at least 3 hours before departure for international flights to accommodate check-in, security, and immigration processes.
• Relax at the airport—if you have extra time, take the opportunity to explore the shops, find a coffee shop, or unwind at your gate or in a departure lounge, if you have access. Generally, airport Wi-Fi is free and available.
• Adjust to the new time zone mid-flight—begin to sync your body clock by changing your watch and adjusting your sleep schedule to align with your destination's time zone. Try to sleep or stay awake on the flight according to the local time of your arrival to help minimize jet lag.
