If you get to the airport early enough you shouldn’t have any trouble.  I always have anxiety over managing the airports, but have found the staff helpful.  

Where are you flying out of? 
 @51fb1883 Grand Rapids so it's not too bad...I'll be there more than an hour ahead of the flight...

Perfect!  Smaller local airports are much more manageable, especially in checking any bags + going through security.  Once you’ve done that it’s just a matter of waiting to board. 
 @51fb1883 @de982875 Agree, my main advice would be to get there several hours early so you don’t have to rush and have plenty of time to find the check in desk in case there is a queue. Then you can go through security and relax. Are you flying into Heathrow? 
 @07e2d0cd Yep...
