Help with Sw out of MH

[kathy87]

Can any of you experts please help me with the check-in procedure at
mh. I have never flown SW and have never flown out of Manchester..
I booked the flight on line so I have a ticketless confirmation. My question is can I get my boarding passes from home even if I have luggage to check?? And do they have curb side check-in?? thanks in
advance. All these unknowns are making me crazy

If you do not have more than just you on the confirmation, yes, you can check in and print your boarding pass from home.
Yes, they have skycaps/curbside.

We flew SWA out of MHT last summer for the first time. It was wonderful! The airport was accessible and parking cheap! SWA has the best low fares - you can't go wrong. We are flying on SWA out of MHT again in July and our airfare this year was the best!!! $49 each way!

I fly out of Manchester all the time. A little tip. The Highlander Inn has a Park & Ride Service. You park your car with them and a van will take you right to the curb side check in for SW. Saves you from hauling your luggage to through the long term parking lot at the airport to their shuttle to the curb. It a great service and competitive with the cost of parking at the airport lots.

Manchester is really a nice little airport.

Thanks to everyone who responded. I just got home from work and was curious about the replies. I leave on Thursday, but my confirmation is for my husband and 2 children. Can I still print boarding
passes?. Thanks for the tip on the Highlander. Is it easier to park in the parking garage as opposed to long term parking.

No, they have to be separate confirmations in order to check in online. Call and see if they will separate them for you.
BTW, checking in online is NOT a guarantee of an A pass, they are equally passed out between online, curb, counter and gate.

We fly SW out of MHT all the time. We find it to be the easiest airport to maneuver through. You can do online boarding passes after midnight on the day of the flight if you like, but you need individual confirmation numbers for each member of your party flying. You can still check luggage even if you already have your boarding pass.

There is curbside checkin outside the terminal, although we have never used it. The line to check in inside has always moved very quickly, and we have no problem there - never waited more than five minutes or so.

As far as parking - you could stay at one of the park and fly hotels, but then you are dependent upon their shuttles when you arrive back home. There are also shuttles to the long term lots on airport property which operate 24 hours a day. Others in our party have used these with no problem. The rates at the parking garage have gone up, but are still much lower than the rates at Logan, for example. I believe it is $14/day, with a limit of $70/week at the current time. We paid $70 for our six day trip last week. My DH likes the convenience of the parking garage, and the fact that his precious Suburban is under cover! We just park, note our spot, and bring our luggage on the moving sidewalk to the terminal, piece of cake!
