easyJet launch online check-in at Nottingham East Midlands Airport
15.03.06
easyJet has become the first low-cost airline to introduce internet check-in at Nottingham East Midlands airport. It can now offer a 15-minute gate arrival time for those travelling only with hand baggage.
Online check-in is a simple process that enables passengers with hand baggage to bypass the check-in queue by printing-off their boarding pass from their own computer. And unlike other airlines, easyJet allows passengers to print off their boarding pass at the time of booking - rather than having to log-in again immediately before travel.
Following a successful trial of the service in early February, easyJet has introduced the service at Nottingham East Midlands yesterday, on the same day the airline celebrates its fourth birthday at the base. The procedure has been approved by the Department for Transport and passengers still face the same security checks.
Passengers who have checked-in online will be able to arrive at the boarding gate up to 15 minutes before the scheduled departure time - a more generous time than that offered by any other airline, a spokesman for easyJet said.
The airline will continue to roll-out the service to customers across Europe this Spring. By April, the innovation should be available to 90% of easyJet's UK passengers.
