Forum .LRN Q&A: Re: Announcement: .LRN Spring Meeting in Heidelberg (2004)

I have another question for the seasoned travelers out there... how early do we need to arrive at the airport these days?  I know it's a lot earlier than it used to be (yuck).  I usually allow 1 - 2 hours for a domestic flight but I suppose it takes longer to get through security for an international flight?  I'm flying out of Logan (Boston) if it makes any difference.
You've got to be there 45 minutes in advance. Depending on the airline you fly and the seat you want to get, I'd suggest to go there early (like 3-4 hours in advance), get your seat and afterwards take a stroll through Boston and enjoy breakfast/lunch/dinner. Then arrive 40 minutes before departure back at the airport and go through security. That's usually enough.
