bentoTips:
  - label: Timing
    title: Desks close 40 minutes before departure
    detail: >-
      Domestic check-in in Terminal C2 opens 1.5–2 hours before departure;
      international check-in in Terminal C opens 2.5–3 hours before. Both close
      40 minutes before departure. For international flights the airport asks
      you to arrive 3–3.5 hours ahead, because you clear customs before check-in
      and then border control and security.
    summary: >-
      Domestic C2 check-in opens 1.5–2 h ahead, international C 2.5–3 h; both
      close 40 min before departure.

      screened at the terminal entrance, and arriving passengers usually ride an
      apron bus from the aircraft to the arrivals hall.
