Domestic Airline Travel must you do Online Check-in or not?

[MJCM]

I just booked an Airasia ticket to fly domestically from Buriram to Don Muang Airport.

 

We are taking 2 suitcases with us.

 

I tried to call to Airasia, but they just refer you to their chatbot online via an automated message.

 

Talked to the chat-bot and NOOOOOO way to be able to talk to a real person and their chat-bot is useless.

 

This cost cutting by these airlines is really ????

 

So must I do the online check-in or can you just show up at the airport and check-in there?

Can't edit anymore, but also tried to call the local (departing) Airport, but both numbers I found are out of order.

You are only flying domestic -  I believe you can just rock up at the airport and show them your booking at the AA counter.

Thx. Appreciated.

 

I think so as well, but with these cost cutting exercises by these low cost airlines are really pushing it, so I wouldn't be surprised one bit if showing up at the airport it's totally empty (no airport staff) and only robots doing the work. Like the delivery of food in MK nowadays!

 

Even their 02 number points you to their chat-bot ????

If you do the online check-in you won't have boarding pass printed from their machine, which, in some airports that only accept that, mean you can't just walk through the gate with only online check in accompanied by just boarding pass printed or on your phone
