Delta online checkin...(SYR)

[Lori-n-NY]

WORKS GREAT.
I just printed my boarding passes for my flight at 6 am tomorrow. (My countdown if off by 1 hour. It should be 1 less hour then what is shown.)

The website lets you confirm your flight time and seat assignment before printing. When it prints it makes two passes per page. One is pass you will use to get on plane the other is a duplicate. Then when in MCO I can use a kiosk and print passes there. Syracuse does not have a kiosk but they do have curbside luggage check starting at 4 am.
The website also tells you that they start loading 30 minutes prior to takeoff. It cuts down the time you really have for a layover.

I was a bit unsure if this online checkin was going to work but so far it does. Bonus you also get 1000 extra skymiles to checkin online. It is advertised on the website so don't worry if you did not get an email with that offer.

I know there are others in Syr that were talking about this. I hope this helps.
I'm packed and ready to go so now its the waiting game.
Have a good day everyone.

Hey Lori (like your name, lol) are you flying Song or regular Delta? I think I can do this with Song too, we are leaving tomorrow at 3:10 PM, so I will print out my boarding passes tonight.

Hey Lori.... Lori here
I am flying regular Delta.
Where are you flying from? Are you getting food on the plane? A friend of mine just flew Song and pre-ordered a sandwich for the flight down and she said it was wonderful. On the website it tells you what can be ordered if your plane is serving lunch or dinner. If you don't pre-order you can order on the plane but it takes alot longer to get your food and chance of them running out too.

How long are you staying in WDW? Where are you staying?

Have fun ...I know we will.

Sounds like Delta has a good feature by automatically printing out two copies. We learned to do that ourselves when we do ATA's web check-in, as they are great for taking our seats, and they confiscate the home-printed boarding pass and give you a new one with your back-of-the-plane seats so you have no proof of what you were supposed to have. After that happened twice, we started printing out two passes. For any airline that does not do it automatically, I highly recommend it.

How do you do this checkin online with delta to get the ticket and everything? I fly out tomorrow Delta and printed out the confirmation or whatever that was with the flight info (doesn't show gate info yet) and shows I paid. I think that's what I took with me last time and did on the kiosk- but now I'm not sure. It's been almost a year since I did that last. LOL It isn't a pass though- I know that.
