Check-in at the airport 

If you’re returning within 24 hours, you can check in for your return flight at the same time. 

• Check-in desks
  You can simply hand over your baggage to our staff at a check-in counter. They will prepare the baggage tag and send it to the airport’s baggage handlers.  
• Baggage drop-off units 
  If you’re already checked in and simply need to drop off baggage, you can use our self-service baggage drop-off units. Simply scan your boarding pass and follow the instructions. It should only take a few minutes. (Available at London Heathrow, Geneva and Copenhagen.) 

Even if you're travelling with hand baggage only, you still need to check in for your flight. 

If you've checked in online, you can directly proceed to your departure gate*. Make sure that your baggage is within the size and weight limits, doesn't contain any dangerous goods and complies with regulations regarding gels and liquids.  

Alternatively, you can take advantage of our free ​hand baggage check-in service.

* When flying out of Africa, you must pass by the check-in desk to pick up your final boarding pass.
