Jet2 confirms 4.5 hour check-in rule for flights at 12 UK airports
Jet2 has confirmed a check-in rule at 12 UK airports that allows passengers with flights before midday to check-in and drop off their bags during a four and a half hour window the day before.
The budget airline’s twilight check-in service allows passengers to save valuable time on the day of their flight by heading straight to security on arrival, completely bypassing long check-in queues. Normally, passengers must arrive at the airport at least two hours before their flight is due to depart and queue up at check-in desks to get their boarding passes and drop off their luggage. But through the twilight service, eligible passengers can avoid this lengthy process and complete it the night before instead, helping to make the morning a lot less stressful.

Jet2’s twilight check-in is only available to passengers with flights due to depart before midday from one of 12 UK airports.
If you have an eligible flight, you can use the free twilight service within a four and a half hour window the evening before your morning flight and drop your bags off between 4.30pm and 9pm.
Passengers must also check-in for flights online any time from 28 days and no later than 24 hours before your flight via Jet2’s website or app.
Explaining how the service works, Jet2 said: “Check in online. You need to do this no later than 24 hours before your flight, but to make sure you don’t miss out, we recommend you check in as soon as online check-in opens, 28 days before you travel.
“Drop your bags at the airport. One person in your party can drop off up to six people's bags. Simply take your luggage to the airport between 16:30-21:00 the evening before your flight. Don't forget your boarding passes and passports!
“Sail straight through to security. On the morning of your flight, bypass check-in and head to security. Relax and enjoy your getaway!”
Listed are the 12 UK airports where Jet2’s twilight check-in is available, seven days a week, for passengers flying before midday:
