And if you arrive 2 hrs in advance, what are you going to do with that extra hour ? Visit a museum? Can anyone guarantee that there won't be a traffic accident on the road that you take to the airport ? Better to arrive an hour early and relax in the departure lounge rather than getting hysterical if you arrive late and the lines are long.
wait another pedestrain bridge may collapse better make that 4+ hrs instead of 3 to be sure. why not simply camp out there the day before to be 100% positive.2 hours is more then enough unless a person has a telltale sign that they will be checked more closely or they will be leaving during the main departure times when tons of flights will be leaving,then I will agree 2 hrs will be cutting it close
