If you remember anything from this story - check into your flight ASAP! Don’t wait ‘til you get to the airport. You want to check in before other passengers to secure your seat assignment and avoid getting bumped from the flight.
Airlines overbook flights, and sometimes even when they don’t, passengers can get bumped simply for the reason that they were the last to check in for a flight.
This is something that many people (even people who fly at least a few times a year) don’t know! Of course you can check in online instead of downloading an app, but I personally like to download the app for the airline I’m flying so you can get updates easily.
Now, when I’m ready to go on a trip, I plan accordingly to check into my domestic flight 24 hours before, and for some international carriers, I’ve been able to check in days beforehand.
