Hi people
I've got two flights next month using airlines and airports I haven't used before.
The first is CMB to CCU on Sri Lankan Airlines.The flight departs at 8.25am. I gather SL Airlines have a general recommendation to arrive 3 hrs before departure. I'm a bit concerned however with what I've read about facilities in Colombo airport. My partner can't stand for long and I understand there isn't a lot of seating in the terminal. I've also read reports that it might be difficult to check in luggage until 2 hours before the flight. What do people who use the airport frequently think we should do?
The second is CCU to BKK on Indigo.
According to their website "IndiGo recommends that Customers report for Check-in at least 4 hours prior to the departure of the scheduled flight."
Seriously? Does everyone who flies with them actually do this? What takes so long?
