Passenger and Baggage Check-in

On-line Check-in

• Most airlines offer the option of online check-in on their websites. 
• Always check whether your airline offers this option and what the conditions of its use are. 
• After online check-in, you just need to upload your electronic boarding pass with the code on your mobile electronic device or print it out. 
• If you are travelling with hand baggage only, you can head straight to security control (Terminal 2) or passport control (Terminal 1) after arriving at the airport, just follow the signs: Departures/Gates. 
• If you are travelling with checked baggage, you must drop it off at the check-in counter assigned to your flight. If your airline so allows, you can check it in yourself at the Self-Service Bag Drop kiosk. 
• To enter the security or passport control zone, scan the code on your printed boarding pass or your mobile device at the boarding pass validator. 

Standard Check-in

• Upon your arrival at the airport, find the numbers of the check-in desks that are checking in your flight or your airline on the departure boards.
• Check-in counters usually open 2 hours before the scheduled departure time and close 40 minutes before the scheduled departure time. This time may vary for different airlines and destinations.
• Before handing in your baggage at the counter, please take a note of the security instructions stating what items you are forbidden to carry in your checked or hand baggage. We recommend that you also read the following: Items Prohibited/Allowed in baggage
• Prepare your ticket (e-ticket) and passport (an identity card will suffice for travels into Schengen area countries or countries outside the Schengen area that allow it).
• At the counter, you will be issued with a boarding pass that will allow you to proceed to a security check (Terminal 2) or to passport control (Terminal 1)

Remember that some carriers may charge additional fees for using standard check-in counters. We always recommend to check additional fees and check-in options with your carrier.

Self-Service Bag Drop

Self-Service baggage Check-in facilities are available at counters 284–295 in the departure hall of Terminal 2 and at counters 111–118 in Terminal 1.

Baggage check-in process

If you already have your baggage tag printed (from online check-in or from the Self-Service Check-in kiosk), there is no need to print it again. Attach the baggage tag to your baggage. Then scan the bar code on the baggage tag and carry on with the self-service process.
