Jet2 has confirmed a rule allowing passengers with flights before midday to check-in and drop off their luggage a day earlier.
Passengers usually have to arrive at their departure airport at least two hours before their flight and queue at check-in desks to get boarding passes before dropping off luggage.
However, Jet2 offers a twilight check-in service at 12 airports across the UK which allows passengers to bypass this process the night before, making morning departures less stressful.
Not only can passengers save valuable time on the day of their flight, they can also avoid having to wait in long check-in queues to drop off bags.
Jet2’s twilight check-in service is only available to passengers with flights due to depart before midday at the 12 airports listed below.
If you have an eligible flight, you can use the free twilight service within a four and a half hour window the evening before your morning flight and drop your bags off between 4.30pm and 9pm.
Passengers must also check-in for flights online any time from 28 days and no later than 24 hours before their flight via Jet2’s website or app.
Explaining how the service works, Jet2 said: “Check in online. You need to do this no later than 24 hours before your flight, but to make sure you don’t miss out, we recommend you check in as soon as online check-in opens, 28 days before you travel.
“Drop your bags at the airport. One person in your party can drop off up to six people’s bags. Simply take your luggage to the airport between 16:30-21:00 the evening before your flight. Don’t forget your boarding passes and passports!
“Sail straight through to security. On the morning of your flight, bypass check-in and head to security. Relax and enjoy your getaway!”
