Airport Timing Tips

Schengen arrivals:
Typically 15–25 minutes from landing to baggage reclaim.

Non-Schengen arrivals:
Allow 30–60 minutes to clear passport control, customs, and collect baggage.

Departures:

  • Schengen flights: security usually 10–20 minutes
  • Non-Schengen flights: allow 30–45 minutes, especially during morning peaks

Avoid known traffic bottlenecks:
Morning rush (6:30–9:30am), evening peak (4:00–7:00pm), EU summit days, strikes, summer holidays, and major trade fairs can significantly increase road congestion.
