What happens if I miss the online check-in window?
You may still check in at the airport counter, but this closes 45–60 minutes before departure depending on your route. Arrive early to allow sufficient processing time.
Can I check in without a smartphone?
Yes. Visit the airport counter at least 2–3 hours before domestic or international departure to complete check-in with a travel agent or airline staff. Online check-in is free and recommended where possible.
