You don't only have to contend with the AA queues but the queues going through Immigration. For the 5am flight Perth - Bali we got there 2 hours early & had done check in - did the baggage stuff (which takes just as long with/without web check in) then were held up in Immigration queues for yonks.
Told an official our plane was boarding - the turd said tough, should've been here earlier. People at the head of the line kindly let us in. Last passengers call - no one at the duty free collection point but I could see our stuff so just went behind the counter & grabbed it. NOT a pleasant start to the holidsy. And this was for the 5am flight.
So, YES, DO get to the airport early!!
