 |  | Check-In Options | |
| Before You Leave.. | - Be Prepared. Always have your boarding pass and priority verification in hand and ready for inspection at the primary checkpoint in every airport.
- Print Your Pass. By printing your boarding pass ahead of time from your home or office, you can bypass the ticket counter and head straight to the gate.
- Explore Your Options. American Airlines offers alternatives to traditional check-in, including Flight Check-In on AA.com, Self-Service Check-In and Curbside Check-In. Review all three and select the one that suits you.
- Flight Check-In on AA.com – Flight Check-In can be found on the AA.com home page, or under the 'Reservation' tab and is the perfect way to stay one step ahead anytime you travel within the U.S. on a domestic electronic ticket. Login to AA.com or enter the passenger name and record locator, print your pass and you're ready to go.
Round Trip Flight Check-In is now available. Check in and print your boarding passes for both your outbound and return flights at the same time (as long as your return flight is within 24 hours of initial check-in). If you use Flight Check-In to print your boarding passes and would also like to check bags when you get to the airport, you can use the Self Service Check-In machines by selecting the "Check Bags Only" option, or Curbside Check-In (fees may apply). For more information on Flight Check-In on AA.com, visit www.aa.com/checkin. | | 
| - Self-Service Check-In – With Self-Service Check-In, you're in control. You can check in, select a seat, check your bags, print your boarding pass and obtain an electronic receipt - all from within the airport. Eligible passengers have additional options such as selecting standby for an earlier or later flight, confirming a seat on an alternate flight or requesting an upgrade. You can even purchase an Admirals Club® One-Day pass for same-day travel! For more information on Self-Service Check-In, visit www.aa.com/selfservice.
Travelling internationally? Customers with e-tickets traveling to international destinations can use Self-Service Check-In machines at select airports. All you need is your passport or credit card. Passengers who are residents of the U.S. but not U.S. citizens will be asked to swipe their U.S. Alien Resident card. For more information, see the international flight check-in page. | | 
| - Curbside Check-In – Why lug that luggage all the way inside? Curbside Check-In not only saves you a suitcase struggle, it also allows you the option of checking excess baggage and picking up your boarding pass. For more information on Curbside Check-In, visit www.aa.com/curbside.
