Check-in Time Requirements
Check-In Times at U.S. Airports
When you’re traveling within the United States, we make the suggestion to arrive at the airport at least 2 hours prior to departure. For most airports, you must be checked in at least 30 minutes before your scheduled departure time (airports requiring additional time are listed below, Go to footer note). Additionally, you’re required to be at the gate and ready to board 15 minutes before scheduled departure. If you are traveling internationally, please review our recommended international check-in requirements.
Bags may be added to your reservation at the time of check-in. However, checked bags will not be accepted at the airport more than 6 hours prior to scheduled departure time.
