Sw online check in

[dansyr2514]

We just booked our flights and debated about adding early bird check in.
Do we really need to add it or if we check in online before we leave will we be ok? My main concern is dbf does not want to get stuck in a middle seat again. He's kinda broad shouldered and it is very uncomfortable for him.
Also, we will be staying at BCV for our trip. Would they be able to check us in online ahead of time or is there a business center where we would have access to a computer and printer?

Thanks in advance help!

Guest Services at any park or Lobby Concierge at any resort will check you in for your Southwest (or other) flight, but you have to BE there at 24 hours before departure.

Or, really, just pay the $10 each for EBCI on the return flight. It's only $10.

I agree...It's worth the $10 to not have to be at Guest Services exactly 24 hours before your flight...what if you are waiting in line for your favorite attraction or at a TS meal?

It's not worth it for your departure flight if you have internet access 24 hours before you leave.

One thing you should know, you can check in w/o a printer and just pick up a boarding pass (hopefully with Gr. A) when you check your baggage. DH and I didn't know this, so we didn't book 24 hours in advance last year before we went home (flight was 6am). However, DS meets the requirements for priority boarding so we could get group C and still get onboard before Gr. A.

You don't need a printer to check in. No matter when you check in, you can print your actual boarding passes at the airport.

If you have a smartphone, you can check in that way too. Last year, before EBCI, I checked in on my phone while we were having dinner.

Or, you can go to the hotel concierge or park guest services at 24 hours and have them check you in.

Or, as others have said, you can pay the $10.
