bentoTips:
  - label: Timing
    title: International check-in closes 40 minutes out
    detail: >-
      Domestic check-in opens 2 hours before. It ends 20 minutes before
      departure for class 1–2 aircraft and 30 minutes before for class 3–4
      aircraft. The same page still calls anyone not at the desk 40 minutes
      before departure a late passenger.
    summary: >-
      International check-in opens 2.5 to 3 hours before departure and ends 40
      minutes before. Missing that desk time makes you a late passenger, and
      late check-in needs the airline's permission.
