SW Early Bird..Do I have this right?

[terribm]

I just purchased SW early bird check in for DH. He is flying home from Disney on Sun (me and the kids are staying a little longer). So, will he be automatically checked in 36 hours before? And all we need to do it print his boarding pass anytime 24 hours prior? TIA

You have it right- he will be automatically checked in and his boarding pass will be available anytime after 24 hours prior to the flight.

My DS10 and I just got back last night using Early Bird check-in with SW. I was skeptical about it, but since my son is way too old for pre-boarding I went ahead and purchased it before we left. I am now totally sold on it if flying out of a family friendly destination [you know, because there's more families competing for space ]. I didn't have to worry about being down at the front desk at exactly 24 hours before our flight and our boarding passes were A25 and A26. Honestly, from now on I will definitely use this service when flying out of Orlando. Helps keep the magic of your vacation intact.
