Practical tip: Check in as early as possible (at the 47-hour mark for popular flights) to secure preferred seat selections, especially if travelling with companions.
Can I check in at the airport instead?
Yes, airport check-in is available, but online check-in is faster and opens earlier, giving you more flexibility with seat selection.
What if I miss the online check-in window?
You can still check in at the airport counter, but you may incur additional fees and have limited seat choice. For USA flights, check-in opens only 24 hours before departure.
