how to check in online swiss air
Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to check-in online for your Swiss International Air Lines (SWISS) flight:
Online Check-in Requirements:
- You must have a confirmed booking with SWISS.
- Online check-in is available from 23 hours before your scheduled departure time.
- You must have a valid travel document (passport, visa, etc.) and any required visas for your destination.
Step-by-Step Online Check-in Process:
- Visit the SWISS website: Go to www.swiss.com and click on "Check-in" at the top right corner of the page.
- Enter your booking details: Enter your booking reference number (also known as your PNR or Record Locator) and your surname. You can find these details on your booking confirmation email or travel itinerary.
- Select your flight: Choose the flight for which you want to check-in from the list of available flights.
- Passenger selection: Select the passengers you want to check-in. Make sure to select all passengers traveling together.
- Seat selection: Choose your preferred seat(s) from the available options. Please note that seat selection may incur an additional fee, depending on your fare type.
- Baggage declaration: Declare any checked baggage and pay for any excess baggage fees, if applicable.
- Print or download your boarding pass: Once you’ve completed the check-in process, you can print your boarding pass or download it to your mobile device.
- Baggage drop-off: If you have checked baggage, proceed to the designated baggage drop-off area at the airport.
Mobile Check-in:
You can also check-in using the SWISS mobile app, available for both iOS and Android devices. Follow the same steps as above, and your boarding pass will be stored in the app.
Check-in deadlines:
Please note that online check-in closes 1 hour before your scheduled departure time. If you’re unable to check-in online, you can still check-in at the airport, but be aware that check-in deadlines may apply:
- For European flights: 45 minutes before departure
- For intercontinental flights: 60 minutes before departure
