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.
