Do I have to check in again for connecting flight?
In most cases, you'll receive your boarding pass for your connecting flight already when you check in for your first flight. This means you don't have to check in again for your next flight.

You usually get boarding passes for both flights. Some smaller airports might have separate terminals so that you have to go back through security and travel to another terminal, but even then should not have to check in if you have the boarding pass already.
Yes. You'll probably get all boarding passes at once when you check in for your first flight, whether you check in online, on your smartphone, or at the airport. For some international itineraries though, the airline will direct you to get your second boarding pass on your layover.
Originally Answered: If you print your boarding pass on united airlines, and you have a layover, does it provide your boarding pass for both of the flights? Yep! Assuming both flights are on the same itinerary, there will be multiple pages to print out per passenger.
Overall, passengers usually have to re-clear security for connecting flights, though there may be some exceptions depending on the airport and flight itinerary. To make this process easier, checking with the airline or airport ahead of time is recommended.
The recommended layover time for domestic flights is normally one hour. However, as previously stated, you may require longer if your flights are booked with two different airlines, if you are traveling to a very busy airport or if you require special assistance.
Just ask at the ticket counter when you check in if you will be getting both boarding passes or if you will need to get the second one at your layover airport. They'll tell you what to do.
If you already have your boarding pass, you may go directly to the boarding gate.If not, you'll have to request it at the check-in counter. If you're travelling with checked luggage, you also must first leave it at the drop-off counter.
Yes, there might be exceptions, but most often than not the airline won't wait. What you can do is to try to avoid missing your connection. But if you do miss your connection, don't worry, the airline will book you on a new flight for free (if it's an airline-protected connecting flight).
If your flight is all under one reservation you will receive a boarding pass for your departure flight and a boarding pass for your connecting flight(s) when you check in. If they are under separate reservations, then you need to check in for each flight you have a reservation number for.

If the missed connection is the airline's fault (a delayed initial flight due to mechanical problems, for example), the airline should rebook you on the next available flight. If the next outbound flight is the following morning, the airline should either book you on another airline or provide accommodations and meals.
For a short-haul flight where you are only taking hand luggage, checking in online saves a lot of time and is therefore much better than checking in at the airport. If, on the other hand, you have to check in bulky luggage, it is better to use the classic check-in at the airport for security reasons.
