How To Get Airline Boarding Pass Printed Before Disembark?

[caribill]

Unless you are flying SW, there is no advantage to printing your passes ahead of time. Just print them at the airport.

 

 

No advantage to printing them even if you are on Southwest.

 

Check-in (as that does have an advantage), but do not waste the time it takes to actually print out the boarding pass when hundreds of others are also trying to do so. You can always print it at the airport.

We used EZ-check for the first time this fall from FLL and it worked great. It's well worth the $20 fee. Just wish it was available at LAX.

Totally agree:D. We use it all the time and definitely agree worth every penny.

Is the $20 fee per bag, per person or per group?

EZ-Check: For $20/pp plus any baggage fees, Princess will check you in, print your boarding pass, and print your airline luggage tags. You put your bags out the night before (with the airline tag on) and they are trucked to the airline and you don't see them until you arrive at your destination. When you get to the airport, you go directly to Security.

 

It's available in some ports (including FLL) for most major airlines. Your flight must leave after 11:30am in FLL, 2pm at MIA and your final destination must be in the US. For some, it's well worth the money. I bring an extra copy of my air confirmation to hand in with the form.

 

I concur with Pam. EZ check is the way to go. You don't see your luggage again until you retrieve it at your home airport. No more searching, lugging and waiting at the airline to check it. Do yourselves a favor and buy a digital luggage scale and carry it with you. They're reasonably priced and readily available.

Per bag. Of course that's in addition to the airline baggage fee.

We have been on a number of cruises where the printers were down the last day of the cruise. Many unhappy cruisers who were trying to print out boarding passes.

We are on the Crown. Went to the Internet cafe to print the passes. As you can image it is crowded and slow. Took eight minutes to print the passes. Sign says they charge $.50/sheet.

EZ Check is $20 per person up to 3 bags per person, plus applicable airline baggage fees.

Per bag. Of course that's in addition to the airline baggage fee.

Ouch! Lord, no, that's not correct. :( It's per-person. The cost is for the service of checking you in, printing your boarding pass and luggage tags, and transferring your bag(s) to the airport.
