OK, I've never used that app, as everyone says it's a real bear to use, but that makes sense. I would have thought each person would have had to have a separate account anyway, regardless of whether it's the same record locator. I guess that would be my question, if we do decide to use it and we have the same record locator, then it is required that it be on one account? Maybe I will look at it for June, but can't say I'm looking forward to having to use it.
As I understand it, the advantage in the US is that you are able to check in online? We will definitely have a bag to check, so we would have to stand in line for that anyway, I think. So, what does it get me?? Airport is Miami, unfortunately, again, thanks to my buddy Jet Blue cancelling our flight from FLL. Sigh, I was kind of looking forward to not having to deal with Miami..

If you are on the same record locator you can use the same verify account and just use the add a companion feature in the app. I know this works because I have done this when we are on the same record locator.

Strange. Both my wife and I use the same email for all related bookings with AA and receive both notifications on separate advantage accounts with same email address. We also use the same email on our AA accounts but Verifly will not open a second account on a different device using the same email. It all good unless you have separate record locator numbers and need a separate Verifly account. I will let you know of my experience next week.

We have separate email accounts for everything, so that is not any problem for us.
But again, is there any advantage to Verifly if you are going to check bags, other than checking in online? We have assigned seats, so not worried about that.

That's not the point. I don't care about checking in online, as it doesn't get me anything. If I have to stand in line anyway to check bags, isn't that the same line??

OK, the last I knew, there isn't a special line to drop bags at Miami. I will post another question about that here.

SandS--OK, that's the first I've heard of that. Previously, everyone had said that in SXM it didn't matter if you had the Verifly app or not, you had to go to the same huge line. IF it makes a difference checking in, in SXM, then I will do it.

Was this leaving Portland or SXM? Leaving SXM. I haven't yet used it to go TO SXM.

So, there is a separate line in SXM JUST for checking bags? No, I didn't mean to suggest that. But I fly FC so there wasn't much of a line, if any, to check my bags.

..which to me is no advantage at all. That's the way it was the last two times we went, and you didn't lose your place in line at all because of it.

Cripes! Post after post about standing in a line!
People, you're going on a vacation to a beautiful island, to eat, drink, lie in the sun. You're not standing in a bread line. You're not standing in line at a train station with your kids and your old Granny trying to escape a war zone!
Count your blessings for once.
And, yes, I just made this political, but seriously, do you have any real problems?
