Is web check-in mandatory in Delta Airlines?

Delta AirLines has a convenient check-in policy for all its customers. This can be done either online by yourself or by visiting the airline's check-in desk at the airport. For check-in, whether online or offline, a government-issued photo identification along with a boarding pass is mandatory.

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.

Due to crowded flights, some carry-on bags may be gate checked, free of charge, during the boarding process and returned upon deplaning. Please ensure that a pink Gate Claim/Planeside tag is securely attached to the carry-on item. Assistive devices are not subject to this restriction.
