Does anyone else get abused by their family for insisting that you should get to the airport 5-6 hours before flight departure?

I've only flown out of JFK a few times but I probably did my usual 1.5 hrs before boarding time. Does it take more than an hour to get through security?

No. I'm just riddled with anxiety and assume there will be a major traffic jam on the way.

get to the airport 5-6 hours
Ah leaving for the airport 5-6 hours in advance might be worth it.

Yes. That's what I meant. If I'm alone I don't worry. It's the large groups with children and lots of moving parts that get to me.

I'm the same way. To me it makes much more sense to leave early and not deal with anxiety, and even if you get to the gate too early--that just means you get to pick the best seats, and everyone has their books and devices to keep them entertained anyway, so what's the downside?

Exactly. Waiting at home isn't any more relaxing to me.

Uh, I'm pretty strong on get to the airport early...and I get there 2 hrs prior to departure.
5 or 6 is kinda a bit strong.

Get to the airport or leave for the airport?
I'm 3+ hours from the big airport, so 5 hours is about right for that... have never had a problem arriving 90 minutes before depart.

That's exactly why I try to get to the airport early, so that everything is relaxed.

I've been stuck in airports because of delays so many times. I usually have connecting flights so I always want to get there early.
