check in from different time zone

retroom

I'm in the pacific time zone and was asked to check in a flight leaving from Chicago in the Central Time Zone which is 2 hours ahead of me.  The flight leaves Chicago at 11:00am, checking in from California can I check in starting at 9:00am - the day before the flight?

 

Thanks,

Larry

Yes, 24 hours prior to the flight's depature regardless of your actual location and any adjustment to time zone. Hopefully your calendar adjusts automatically if you set a "one-day alarm" but in your case yes it would be 9 a.m. check-in for an 11 a.m. flight from MDW.

Hey, thanks DancingDavidE for the reply.  I'll try to check in at 9am my time - using local time of the flight.
