Web Check in, some useful information
- If you’re a passenger travelling to or from North America with a web boarding pass, you must go to the dedicated web check-in counter at the airport at least 75 minutes prior to your scheduled departure time.
- All other passengers who check in online are advised to allow sufficient time to check baggage and proceed through security checkpoints. The time necessary for security and document checks may vary by airport, day and time. We advise you to be at the boarding gate 30 minutes prior to departure at the very latest. If you arrive late to the boarding gate, you unfortunately won’t be accepted for travel.
- After you check in online you can go directly to the Bag Tag and Drop desk where your checked baggage can be processed. Please note that Bag Tag and Drop desks aren’t available at all airports.
- Seats are automatically assigned for you. You can change your seats during check in or by using our Manage Trip facility.
- Passengers using web check in from Izmir must go to the check-in desk at the airport to get a standard boarding pass issued in exchange for their printed version, as per local authority requirements.
