Arrive 1.5-2 hours early for domestic flights and 3 hours for international. Missing the check-in cutoff means boarding is closed even if the plane hasn't left. Here are the key deadlines.
Check-in cutoff and gate-closing times are easily missed. Check-in counters close 30-45 minutes before departure, and gates close 15-20 minutes before—arrive late and you'll have to rebook.
Recommended Arrival
- ✓Domestic: 90-120 minutes early; 2 hours in holidays or at major airports
- ✓International/regional: 180 minutes (3 hours)
- ✓Checking bags, special items, or first-time flyers: add 30 minutes
- ✓Already checked in online with no bags: slightly less, but allow for security
Security Tips
Have ID/passport and boarding pass ready; lithium batteries and power banks go in carry-on, not checked; liquid containers must be under 100ml each. At peak times choose quieter lanes.
