Have you ever booked an airport taxi service and packed your bags at night, but still worried you’ll miss your flight? Booking a flight and then making it on time to the airport is a nerve-wracking process.
Driving to the airport, long lines at check-in and getting through airport security can be very stressful and induce anxiety.
If you’re flying for the first time and keep feeling like you’ll miss your flight, we have some tips that can help. Read ahead to learn three ways you can make it to the airport without running late.
1. Arrive Early
It goes without saying, you should always leave your home two or three hours before your departure time. Once you arrive at the airport, you’ll have to check in to confirm your booking with the airline.
This process includes getting your passport scanned (if you’re flying internationally), receiving your boarding pass and weighing your luggage. All of this will take time and arriving earlier will help you get done with this process right in time before your flight.
You can also check-in online and keep your boarding pass on your phone so you can avoid the check-in line altogether. This helps when you’re running late and need to immediately catch your flight.
2. Locate Your Gate
Once you’re done checking in, you need to find your gate. The gate number will already be printed on your boarding pass but it’s possible for your gate and terminal number to change last minute.
This is why you should keep checking the flight departure time and stay updated on the latest information. Arrive at your gate at the boarding time. If you’re confused about directions, you can always talk to airport staff for directions.
3. Don’t Rely on Public Transport
If you’re headed towards the airport, do not rely on public transport. The subway or the buses can break down and you can end up missing your flight.
