first choice check in

[a jay]

Does anyone know if first choice has a check in desk somewhere on orlando. We have never checked in for the return journey away from the airport so some advice on the best way to do this will be great!

Bumping, I would like to know this too!!

They do have one and I believe it's on International Drive, $12 pp.
We are planning to use it on our last day. They advise to book it at the welcome meeting but you don't have to, you can call them.

Is this just optional, or do all First Choice passengers have to do this? If this is the case, then I need info too!

Oh God, do you have to attend those welcome meetings? This is the first year we have booked with a travel agent, we normally book everything ourselves. I could'nt bear sitting through a welcome meeting!!!

You don't have to do it, it is optional. If you want to do it, you have to pay $12 pp to do so.
You can check your bags in from 8am.

You do not have to attend the welcome meeting, you can book by calling them. I think they lead you to believe it has to be done at the meeting so as they can sell you their tickets and excursions while they've got you.

Thanks for the reply...think we'll leave this one, no car for us, so it'll be easier at the airport

Oooo, I'm really pleased to hear this, it will make the last day SO much easier! What happens when you get to the airport? Alex will you let me know how easy it is when you get back. xx

 

[alexandra uk]

Yes' I'll let you know when I get back.

We went with First Choice in 2006 and I didn't know about this and don't really understand it. We just went to the airport 2 hours before the flight as usual. What difference does checking in at the place on I-Drive make? (We always avoid the welcome meeting too!!) Does it mean you don't have to get to the airport so early?
