    Passengers' Tips & Tricks

    1. 1

      Arrive Early

      Due to potential traffic and airport procedures, especially during peak travel times, allow ample time for check-in, security, and boarding. It's recommended to arrive at least 2-3 hours before your international flight and 1-2 hours before domestic flights.
