    Check-in/baggage drop-off and boarding gate deadlines are important as missed deadlines may result in the reassignment of any reserved seats, the cancellation of reservations, and/or ineligibility for denied boarding compensation from the airline.

    If you arrive at the airport after the cut-off time and have not already checked in online, you will be denied boarding.

    If you have not checked your bags before the check-in cut-off time, they will not be permitted on the flight.

  • Always check with your airline regarding baggage concerns.
