Flight Check in

My husband will not have access to his phone or laptop for checking in for his flight and already has paid for early bird check in. Does he still have to do the 24 hour check in or can he just go to airport and print boarding pass

EarlyBird Check-In Customers will have their boarding positions reserved beginning 36 hours prior to their flight's scheduled departure time. Boarding Passes can be accessed beginning 24 hours prior to the flight's scheduled local departure time.

 

Boarding positions are assigned based on the time stamp of the EarlyBird Check-In purchase relative to passengers within the same fare class.

How soon can we check-in for our flight?  How do we register to be an early bird?

You can check in online or through the mobile app beginning 24 hours prior to departure.

 

EarlyBird Check-In is an additional fee product that automatically checks you in beginning 36 hours prior to departure. (Then you go online beginning 24 hours prior to departure to print your boarding pass, or at the airport.) The fee is $15 per person, each way. You can add EarlyBird Check-In here.
