Flights on our partner airlines

The check in process for airlines can vary, so if you’re flying with one of our partners we recommend you check their website for more information.

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.
