Airport check-in

Save time at the airport by checking in and printing your boarding pass at a Self-Service Kiosk.

Regardless of your check-in method, please be sure to respect the Check-In Deadline, the time limit beyond which you can no longer check in for your flight nor check in your baggage. The Check-In Deadline varies from 15 to 90 minutes before departure time, depending on your departure and arrival airport.

You can check in at a Self-Service Kiosk:
  • the day of your flight and up to your check-in deadline,
  • alone or with others,
  • with or without baggage,
  • with a reduced rate* (proof must be presented upon boarding),
  • for a trip with a connecting flight.

* Student, youth, child, couple/family, senior, convention/exhibition, naval officer, tour operator, offshore, NGO or student from Corsica.

How to use Self-Service Kiosks

At the Self-Service Kiosk, simply introduce your Flying Blue card or debit or credit card with your first and last name (even if it was not used to pay for your ticket), or enter your e-ticket or reservation number. At certain kiosks, you can also identify yourself by scanning your passport.

Once the system has identified you:
  • the Self-Service Kiosk will retrieve your electronic ticket from our database,
  • you can confirm your seat or choose another seat on the cabin map,
  • the kiosk will print your boarding pass.

If you need to check in your baggage, simply take it to the "baggage drop-off" counter.
Save time!
You can modify your baggage identification tag from a Self-Service Kiosk*. You can then attach it to your baggage and proceed to the dedicated Express baggage drop off counter. And you´re ready to go!

* At Paris-Orly (Halls 2 and 4) and Bordeaux airports.
