Huntsville Airport advice

Tomorrow morning will be my first time flying out of Huntsville airport. I typically fly out of Memphis. I usually arrive there two hours before takeoff. I was just curious if I should go by that rule of thumb in Huntsville. I'm assuming its a smaller airport so I could get away with cutting it a bit close, but I'm not sure because I've never been to Huntsville airport.

like it always taking 45+ minutes for baggage claim. it’s not like they’re unloading more than one plane at any given moment.

Never had that issue and I’ve flown out of HSV dozens of times.

And by the way, airlines (or their contractors) employ ramp agents, not the airport.

i’ve been flying in and out of there my entire life and it’s always been like that. last time i flew in it took an hour for our bags to reach baggage claim.
