Traveller Tips

Arrive at least 60–90 minutes before departure as security can occasionally queue during peak charter periods.
Pre-book your taxi or rental car as on-demand options may be limited during off-peak hours.
The Elmia exhibition centre is adjacent to the airport, so expect heavier traffic and hotel demand during major trade fairs.
Check-in facilities are compact, so travel light or arrange baggage logistics in advance for smoother processing.
