If my flight leaves at 10:00am and it takes 15 minutes to get to the airport, should I have my taxi driver come pick me up at 8:00 or 7:45 or some other time? My Dad said you're supposed to get there pretty early and I haven't flown since I was about 11.

Depends on if you're taking an international flight or a domestic flight.

3 hours before an international flight's departure time.

1 hour to 45 minutes before a domestic flight's departure time.

My local airport states that you should arrive at least an hour ahead of a domestic flight, or 3 hours ahead of an international flight

4.45 would be good, it's good to get their early cos it takes time to walk to check in and then there shouldn't be many ques..


and if you aint got prebooked seats then you should get a decent one.

4:45? Please tell me that's a typo.

My tickets were ordered weeks ago.

Doesn't matter when your tickets were booked. The seats you get depend on when you check in.

So what's the point in purchasing a ticket beforehand if it doesn't reserve anything?

It reserves A spot on the plane. Just not a specific spot.

Always arrive at an airport 3 hours before take-off. Follow this rule religiously and you should avoid most problems.

Arrive 3 hours before your flight at my two airports and you will be sitting BORED for 2 hours. Depends on where you're flying out of. Pittsburgh? Maybe get there 90 minutes before. Harrisburg or Erie, and you could probably show up 60 minutes before and be just fine.
