Arriving 1.5/3 hours before an intl. flight

Well, the common advice is to arrive 90 minutes before a domestic flight and 3 hours before an international flight. That advice has been mentioned again and again and it's also the official recommendations.

Now, how do these recommendations change in the following circumstances? :

- when you've already checked in online and just have a bag drop to do

- when you've already checked in online and have only cabin luggage
