You know, I've never had the earlier arrival for international flights enforced. And this is for when I've checked bags and for when I haven't. While I'll spend the night at the airport if I have an early flight (domestic or international), I tend to get to the airport about minutes before international flights otherwise. Has never been a problem for me.
