This process let passengers confirm presence on a flight via the internet and print their own boarding passes. Basically, you need to provide more details like preferred seating, baggage information and or options to make your check-in a success. The most outstanding advantage of online check-in is of course that you don't have to queue at the airport, thus making your flight much easier.

Compared to airport check-in, lounge check-in only takes you about 10 minutes. It's actually a self check-in process. You just check in at the kiosk with ePass and go straight to the lounge, in case that you don't have checked luggage. And if you have to check luggage, you may need to attach luggage tag and drop them at the baggage drop belt.
