To have plenty of time to drop your luggage, clear security and arrive at the right boarding gate, make your way to the airport approximately three hours before an international flight. If you’re traveling domestically, show up around two hours before. Even if you’ve already selected your seat and downloaded your boarding pass at home, it’s worth keeping in mind that there are closing times for luggage drop. It’s an hour before departure for international flights, and 45 minutes if you’re traveling domestically. Of course, times can differ between airlines, so it’s wise to check these details ahead of your flight.
