Can you print boarding pass at airport after online check-in?

Yes it is possible to print boarding pass after you have done web check in. There are two ways to print. Pleas go to any check in counter. Show your PNR or web boarding pass and staff will print your boarding pass.



Yes, you can still print your boarding pass at the airport in 2026, even if you have already completed the online check-in process on your phone. Most major airports are equipped with self-service kiosks where you simply scan your passport or enter your 6-digit confirmation code to reprint a physical paper pass. This is a common practice for travelers who want a backup in case their phone battery dies or for those who enjoy collecting physical passes as souvenirs. If the kiosks are unavailable, any ticket agent at the check-in counter can print one for you, though in 2026, some "ultra-low-cost" carriers (like Spirit or Ryanair) may charge a fee for this service if you didn't print it at home or use a mobile app. For international travel, many airlines actually require you to stop at a kiosk or counter to have your physical documents verified, at which point they will often hand you a high-quality cardstock boarding pass anyway, regardless of your digital check-in status.

One disadvantage is certainly that many people have poor time management and arrive too late at the airport if they check in online. For some, this can lead to unwanted time pressure. On the other hand, those who still have to check in at the airport itself usually arrive early enough and are therefore over-punctual.

What to Do After Online Check-In. Once you receive your electronic boarding pass, you can head straight to security if you're traveling carry-on only.

  • Traveling in a large group.
