Welcome to Guatemala! La Aurora International Airport is your gateway, conveniently located right within Guatemala City. You'll find it's a relatively compact and easy-to-navigate airport, which helps make for a smooth arrival or departure. For departing international flights, it's wise to arrive about three hours early, especially during peak morning hours, to allow plenty of time for check-in and security. If you're traveling with children and only one parent is present, be sure to have a notarized letter of consent from the other parent, as this is often required.
