When should I arrive at the airport My flight is at 7:00 am?

Question

I was wondering if I left the house at 5am exactly would I be safe? or would I have to leave earlier? Im leaving from Pittsburgh International Airport the airplane is suppose to leave at 7am exactly. if someone could give me an exact time that would be great thank you.

Answer 1

5-5:30

Answer 2

If the airplane leaves at seven, then the flight boards at six thirty. You should get to the airport by five thirty to have time to make it through check-in and security.

Answer 3

that isn't too big of an airport. As long as you get there by 6a you should be fine

Answer 4

you should arrive 2hrs early at the airport for international flights, 1.5hrs for domestic flights.

this is because you have to go through check in and security... and you have calculate the time that there will be long line ups. good luck and have a safe trip!

Answer 5

5 am.

Happy Flying!!!!!

Answer 6

shouldnt you be there 4 hours before the flight? or am i imagining it, also, how are we supposed to know? we dont know how your getting to the airport, where from, what transport etc

Answer 7

Typically you should arrive 1.5 - 2 hours before your flight. It doesnt hurt to get there early because you never know how many people are going to be flying out that day and the lines for security checks can be super long. I'd be there no later then 5:30am just to be safe. Wouldnt want to miss my flight

Answer 8

5 am is to late. try 4:45. then u have time for unexpected things. :)

Answer 9

Answer 10

Answer 11

Answer 12

i myself always like to be ontime  so i would leave 2.5 hours ahead of time that airports security is tought there in Pittsburgh they almost made me late before

Answer 13

Depends on domestic or international flight. domestic 2 hrs, international 4 hrs

Answer 14

international flights 2 hours early.. domestic flights about an hour and 15 min

Answer 15

Okay , rule of thumb. You should be AT the airport TWO HOURS before your flight leaves.

You may end up with extra time , but believe me... two hours is the safest bet.

You have to leave time for checking in/getting your tickets, baggage, security, pre boarding etc. Plus, you never know how long line ups will be.

Have fun and have a safe flight!

Answer 16

You should get there At 5 AM. So however far you live from the airport leave that early. Its best to be their early for security because usually at international airports lines are longer for everything. Its best to get their early than late.

Answer 17

you should arrive at the airport AT LEAST 1 and a half hours before your plane. better safe than sorrry

Answer 18

I think you should plan on being at the airport in your car at 445AM. There is a lot going on for the 7AM departures. You will need to park your car, walk or ride to the terminal, check in, and go through security, and walk to the other side of the world where your gate will be. Once you get through security check, you can grab a bite to eat and proceed to your gate.

here in colorado it's known factor that if you are not there 90 mins ahead you might as well stay home. I stick to that no matter where i am

Answer 20

It depends on traffic, and the area you are coming from.  You should have an approximate time it takes to get to the airport then add an hour to check in and 30 mins for accidents or other things that might delay you.  Most important make sure you are ready to go!

Answer 21

i would arrive around 6:30 to 6:40 just incase you et lost or somethin

Answer 22

at 5am

have a good flight
