I have checked in online and have no hold baggage, do I need to go to check-in? If you have checked in and have a printed or mobile boarding pass and are not checking in any hold luggage you can go straight to security and through to the departure lounge.

If you prefer, 24 hours before your flight, you can check-in online using your confirmation or ticket number from your e-ticket receipt on the airline's official website, and if you choose, print your boarding passes, send scannable copies to your smartphone, or both.

Is an e-ticket also my itinerary? No. A flight itinerary has all the details you need to know about the flights on your trip—departure city and time, flight numbers, arrival city and times, etc. —while an e-ticket may only have some of that information.

For a short-haul flight where you are only taking hand luggage, checking in online saves a lot of time and is therefore much better than checking in at the airport. If, on the other hand, you have to check in bulky luggage, it is better to use the classic check-in at the airport for security reasons.

If you don't meet your check-in time limits, we have the right to deny service. We may cancel your reservations, deny boarding, or refuse to check your bags.

The airline will email you a link to check in online. If you haven't received an email from them, just go to the airline's website, find the 'Online check‑in' section, and follow the instructions. The following details may be required at check‑in: passenger's first and last name.

Is Online Check-in Mandatory? It is not a mandatory process but it is the best option to save time. Especially passengers without baggage or with hand luggage only can head straight to the aircraft after showing their boarding pass at the control. Online check-in helps passengers to save time.

Generally speaking, we like to err on the side of caution and suggest you print out your boarding pass, even if you already checked in online and have a mobile version on your phone.

There is no need to print tickets thanks to e-tickets.

Either get your boarding pass at the airport via the check-in counter or self-serve kiosks or download a mobile boarding pass to your phone ahead of time.
