How online check-in works
Online Check-in opens 48 hours before departure and closes 60 minutes before your flight departs (45 minutes for some domestic flights). To check in, use your PNR (booking reference) and last name on the airline's website or mobile app. During check-in, you can select your seat and receive your boarding pass digitally. There are no fees for online check-in.
If you prefer to check in at the airport, counters open 3 hours before departure and close 1 hour before your flight leaves. Practical tip: Check in online as early as possible (48 hours before) to secure your preferred seat and avoid airport queues, particularly during peak travel periods.
