Question
1: I need proof that I have traveled by airplane. How can I get such proof?
Answer 1: The passenger copy of a travel ticket is your proof of payment,
and will be accepted by official organizations as proof that you were on a
flight.
Question 2: How long before departure should I be
at an airport?
Answer 2: Not every airport or airline has the same check-in times. Check-in
times for domestic, intercontinental destinations can differ greatly. Some
airlines often require passengers to report to the airport earlier in connection
with stricter security measures. Particularly during the holidays and summer
vacations, passengers should leave plenty of time, since lines at check-in
and immigration can be very long. Please ask your travel agent or NAC office
about the recommended check-in times.

are imposed by the local authorities. Airlines have no influence on such matters.
Normally money and valuables are not suggested to put inside the check in
