Still, major airports all want you to arrive quite a long time before your flight's scheduled departure.
Not much point in spending $$$$ on fuel to knock an hour off a 4-hour flight, if I end up with an hour-long wait at each end.
- ghaff 2y agoI don't really care what the airport wants. But stuff happens--e.g. there's construction in the tunnel leading to the airport or there's a holdup of some sort--so I essentially always arrive much earlier than I need to. I hate stressing myself for maybe a bit more sleep in the morning.

I think they still encourage this so that you'll spend $$ at the airport (the longer you're there, the more likely you are to spend), which is a major source of revenue these days.
