For a smooth departure, Alaska Airlines provides various check-in options:
- Online Check-In: Alaska Airlines allows passengers to check in online 24 hours before departure through their website or mobile app. It’s the fastest way to check in, print your boarding pass, and select your seats.
- Self-Service Kiosks: If you haven’t checked in online, there are self-service kiosks near the Alaska Airlines counters at Terminal A, where you can quickly print your boarding pass.
- Counter Check-In: The Alaska Airlines ticket counter offers assistance for luggage drop-off, changes to itineraries, and any other travel needs. It’s recommended to arrive at least 90 minutes before departure for domestic flights and 2 hours for international flights to allow enough time for check-in and security screening.
- Security Screening: After check-in, passengers proceed to the TSA security checkpoint in Terminal A. While security lines vary by time of day, early morning and late evening flights tend to have shorter wait times. Alaska Airlines participates in TSA Pre Check, allowing eligible passengers to use the expedited screening lane.
