Air Jamaica Now Offers Web Check-In

With over 300 flights a week to Jamaica, Air Jamaica has more flights to the island than any other carrier...and checking in for those flights just got a whole lot easier. Travelers can now check in online at www.AirJamaica.com . The new option, Web Check-In (WCI) will expedite the check-in process and enable passengers to reduce the length of time checking in at the airport.

The online check-in feature allows passengers with electronic tickets to check-in for their flight, select a seat and print a check-in confirmation - over the internet, from the comfort of their home, hotel or office. At the airport, passengers who have used this service can proceed to the specially marked Web Check-In counter for the relevant verification, baggage and security checks to be carried out. At this point a boarding pass is issued in exchange for the check-in confirmation.

With this convenience, travelers with bags to be checked can arrive at the airport counter at least 90 minutes before the scheduled departure of their flight. International passengers with no checked bags can arrive at the counter at least 60 minutes prior to scheduled departure and passengers traveling wholly within Jamaica with no checked bags can arrive at the counter at least 45 minutes prior to scheduled departure.

During the initial rollout of this service, WCI will be available to passengers departing from Kingston, Montego Bay, Miami and Fort Lauderdale allowing them to check-in 4-18 hours before scheduled departure.

Passengers using WCI will need to have the first and last names of all passengers, reservation record locator, passport and any other relevant travel documents in addition to emergency contact information.

The new feature will not be available to unaccompanied minors, special service need passengers, standby listings and travel on interline flights, i.e. connections with non Air Jamaica carrier, codeshare flights or groups of 10 or more. In addition, customers making changes to itineraries or cancellations must contact an Air Jamaica agent via telephone or at the airport.
