If you are flying this weekend…
All AirAsia travellers flying during this period should check-in online ahead of the upgrade period and print out your boarding pass, or use the E-Boarding pass where available. Web and mobile check-in are available from 14 days prior to departure for all AirAsia and AirAsia X flights.
It’s also a good idea to be at the airport at least 3 hours before your flight to avoid any travel inconvenience. This is especially true if:
- you have children, elderly or disabled passengers in your group
- you have luggage to drop
- There may be a long queue
- it is a busy time of day
- Security and Immigration counters may be crowded and slow
- you are leaving from klia2 on a flight from a P or Q gate.
- It is a long way to your gate.
