What time should I arrive at the airport?
We recommend arriving at least 2 hours before your flight departure time to allow enough time to check in and go through security.
I have checked in online and have no hold baggage, do I need to go to check-in?
If you have checked in and have a printed or mobile boarding pass and are not checking in any hold luggage you can go straight to security and through to the departure lounge.
If you have bags to check in, please visit your airline’s check-in desk. Your desk number will be shown on the flight information screen in check in.
How long do I need on my passport?
Passport and ID requirements can vary. Please check with your airline before travelling.
