1happykamper Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 I am flying to Beijing from CNX soon. The flight leaves at 11:45 pm Does anyone know the earliest check-in time for this flight based on experience? Cheers in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSiemReaper Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 The airline is usually a better guide to check in times than the destination. Usually it's 2 hours before at CNX for international flights; however, if you are flying with an airline which keeps a counter open all the time - they may let you check in earlier. If you're flying with Air Asia... it's normally 90 minutes before at CNX despite the claim of 2 hours on the tickets... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1happykamper Posted May 9, 2016 Author Share Posted May 9, 2016 I'm at the airport now. The correct answer is : 3 hours! Good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinnieTheKhwai Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 But what's the joy in camping out at the airport for 3 hours? (Personally I would possibly check in 3 hours before, but then go straight back out again for some food and drinks somewhere, and then show up again around boarding time.)

arunsakda Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 Great airport for early check-in and avoiding long lines. One can walk across carpark to Thai restaurant or the Seafood place with the airplane in back. Even go to the Mall if so inclined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickeem Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 No queues at the Air China desk when I turned up at 10:40PM for my Beijing flight 2 weeks ago. (late check in delay due to en route refreshments) . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And there were empty seats!! Very strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I enjoy people watching. plus I'm, 6'3" and so I want an emergency exit seat... Early Bird gets that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
