Passengers traveling with Emirates can Check-in conveniently with the check-in options provided as below:

Online Check-in

Emirates' provides online check-in service for most locations in the network. Online Check in open 48 hours and closed 90 minutes before your scheduled departure time. You can drop off your bags 24 hours before departure, or 12 hours before departure if you’re flying to the US, and you can collect your boarding pass or download a digital one to use at most airports.

You must be departing from an airport that allows online check-in. However, all customers still need to go to the airport check‑in counter so we can verify your documents and issue your boarding pass.

You may have the option of printing an e-Boarding pass, depending on departure city. Otherwise you will pick up your boarding pass at the airport from a self-service kiosk.

Please note that online check‑in is not available if the first flight in your itinerary is not an Emirates flight. This applies to all codeshare flights that are not operated by Emirates.

Self Check in Kiosk

It’s easy and quick to check in for your flight using the self check in kiosks. Simply follow the step by step instructions on the touch screen to complete the whole process without having to visit airport desks.

Use the bag drop kiosks to check in your bags at the same time. You can also view your itinerary, choose your seat and add your Emirates Skywards number.

If you’ve already checked in online, you can use the kiosks to check in your bags.

You can use the self-service check-in kiosks and bag drop at the check-in area in Terminal 3, Dubai International Airport if you're travelling to any destination except US and Canada.
