When flying with a partner airline we recommend you check in three hours before your scheduled departure to avoid losing your reservation.
When to arrive for your flight
We recommend you get to the airport with plenty of time to spare – it’s a good way to avoid last-minute stress! As a rule of thumb:
- Virgin Atlantic flights: arrive at the airport at least two hours before your flight is due to leave.
- Partner airline flights: we recommend you check in three hours before your scheduled departure.
Check in options
You can check in for your flight and pick up your boarding pass using any one of the following options.
The best way to check in is online. You can pick your seat and print your boarding card. Just go to Manage your flights. If you’re travelling with carry on baggage only, you can print off your own boarding pass and we’ll see you at the gate. Be advised, once at the airport you may need to report at the counter and replace your home printed boarding board with a traditional one.
You can use our mobile site to check in wherever you are, anytime between 24 and 2 hours before your flight leaves.
If you’d like to check in at the airport go to desks J1-J7 in Terminal 3, where our helpful staff will get you on your way as quickly as they can. Check in desks open 3 1/2 hours before departure. You’ll find our bag drop at desks J1-J2
