Thank you. I remember seeing that thread at the time. I think my main concern on this one was if we really do need to go out to the ticketing counter to check in or if we could just proceed with our carry-ons straight to the gate and check in there.

I wonder if online check-in is possible? The website has a tab to check in online but for my flight it says it isn't available at that location. We are still a couple weeks out though, so perhaps it's possible within 24 hours like other airlines?
