Haven't flown Delta in forever- what's their boarding procedure?

[SDSorority]

I haven't flown Delta in about 6 years. Do you have to check in online 24 hours in advance to get a position in line to board?

....can you tell I'm used to flying Southwest?

TIA!

After first class and the frequent travlers, they board by zone. Back to front.

You will have an assigned seat. You should have picked seats when you made the reservation. You can check your reservation online to seat if seats are assigned. If no seats are available, they can be assigned at 24hours through online check-in. If still not available, you will have to wait until you get to the airport. The seat number and boarding zone will be printed on your boarding pass. As tkldisney said, they will call the zones when it is time to board.

Ok awesome. I did pick seats- they're either right on or right in front of the wing on each flight, so I guess I'll be boarding towards the end.

Thanks!
