At the airport in-person check-in time when the flight is delayed [duplicate] - Worried young businesswoman with suitcase hurrying on flight on urban background

If a flight is delayed, and they announce in advance the delay, is the check-in time also delayed?

Say, at 13h, the flight, that was scheduled for 16h, has an estimated departure for 16h30. If in-person at the airport check-in time was 15h20, is check-in time 15h50 now?

Edit:

Somehow this If I know a flight is delayed can I turn up late for check-in at the airport? answers my question.



Best Answer

No.
That is clearly written on each airlines web sites. You are always required to appear according at the original scheduled times.

The main reason is that sometimes the delay disappears or reduces, and they want you to be present for boarding.

Can you check in at the airport twice?

No, but it is not considered as a double checkin. You have the same seat and the same sequence number. You only print your boarding pass twice.

Can you check-in flight late?

You can't be late to check-in on a delayed flight because the closing time for check-in is set relative to the scheduled time of departure, not the actual one. As a result, it remains the same, regardless of whether your plane is late or not.

What do you do if you are already checked in at the airport?

Once you've completed the check-in process, you can print your boarding pass, have it emailed to you (so you can show it at the airport on your mobile device), or access it in a mobile app. If you don't have access to a printer or a smartphone, you can print your boarding pass once you get to the airport as well.

What happens if you wait to check-in a flight?

What happens in you don't check in for your flight? If you don't check in for your flight by the cut-off time, you may be denied boarding. The airline may bump you to the next available flight. If you are a no-show, you'll likely lose the value of your ticket.
