How long before my flight time must I arrive at the airport?

Check-in times vary by airline and airport. Most airlines now require passengers to be on board the aircraft 20 minutes prior to departure for domestic flights and 30 minutes to an hour prior to departure for international to accommodate required 'positive baggage match.' For current information, check with your airline.

Make sure you have up to date info on baggage limits, a lot of airlines have lowered it to 50 pounds and I met a bunch of divers over the weekend who thought it was still 70 pounds and got hit with extra charges.

If I can add one....If you are checking bags it should be a no brainer but I found out the hard way you have to have your bags checked at least 30 minutes before the SCHEDULED departure time for domestic travel. If not, then you and your bags will be on the next available flight.
