As these are dates of high passenger traffic, the administration of the air terminal recommends that, before moving to the airport, confirm your flight and itinerary, arrive at least 3 hours before departure and always keep in touch with your airline , which will allow fluency in the registration procedure and avoid any setbacks.
Also, it is suggested to carry the respective travel documentation in hand luggage and verify in advance the permits for travel by minors.
