Online check in

Post by Kermit »

Just wondering.
I can check in online at home before i fly and print out my boarding pass ect.
But on the return flight do i use one of the machines @ the airport on the end of the check in desk?
Any help please as i have never checked in using this facility and BMI (BMI Maybe LMAO :lol: ) have little info on there site.
Oh and my crappy virgin phone line is down again so i cant ring them.

You can only check in online up to 48 hours before you are due to fly with BMI Maybe, I'm in the same boat for 420 luckily I know someone who has a printer, I was told that the library was the best place to print something.

Does any1 know if Kokopelli still has internet with a printer?
There website shows it but is it still there?.
Or anywhere else with a printer apart from the library
I am at the greenhouse effect so near there is best.
Cheers

I think it is 24hr before your flight for amsterdam?

Email the Greenhouse Effect explaining that you're stopping with them and ask if they have printing facilities.

When I went last October, I checked in online at home (first time), but on the way back I just went to the check-in desk at Schipol, but I understand they can now charge you extra for checking in in person... This didn't actually happen back then, but if my hotel has a printer I can use on their internet connetion for my May trip, then I'm sorted.

Failing that, which library would you suggest, Boner? It's not the sort of thing I generally look out for when I'm in Amsterdam... :?

:wink:

I was just told 'the library' so I'm guessing it's at the main one @ Oosterdokskade 143.

This may vary by airline ...but you can check in without printing . KLM / NW allows one to check in by computer . It stores your data ,then when you arrive at Schipol you'll see a machine ,near the luggage check in line ,which will scan your passport and print out your pass there ... You will need a computer you feel comfortable entering your passport etc
numbers ...hope this helps

Ryanair, Bmibaby and Easyjet all ask for a printed boarding card.

I fly Continental and you can get on the internet 24 hours before your flight and ck in and print your boarding pass by putting in your hotel fax number and it will be fax to your Hotel.

I ended up using an Internet Cafe in town to print off my boarding card - the hotel couldn't print off from their Internet pc - I would have had to send the boarding pass as an email to their front counter computer, then print off from there, but my email isn't all that web-friendly, so I thought, sod it, and went into town and got it done... no worries.
