To check in at the airport, you typically need to follow these steps:
1. Arrive at the Airport: Make sure you arrive at the airport with sufficient time before your flight. The recommended time may vary depending on the airline and destination, but it's generally advised to arrive at least 2 hours before domestic flights and 3 hours before international flights.
