Check-In Times at International Airports
When you’re traveling outside of the United States, we suggest arriving at least 3 hours prior to your departure. You must be checked in at least 1 hour before your scheduled departure. Additionally, we recommend being at the gate and ready to board 45 minutes before your scheduled departure time. Some airports require checking in at an earlier time prior to departure for international flights — if you’re flying from one of these airports, the required minimum check-in times specified below apply, and you will not be permitted to check in after that time.
