Curbside check-in
Use curbside check-in
Curbside check-in is a convenient way to check in for your flight, get your seat assignment and boarding pass and check your bags at the airport.
You can use this option if you:
- Have a confirmed ticket / reservation (including Basic Economy)
- Are using a credit or debit card to pay bag charges
- Are traveling on a domestic flight
We’ve partnered with Bags, Inc. for curbside concierge service at many of the airports where we fly. There’s a small convenience fee (starting at $3 per bag) for this service, plus any checked bag charges that may apply.
When you arrive, simply present your photo ID and one of the following:
- Name and flight number
- Confirmation code
- Destination
Keep in mind, you should check-in at a kiosk inside the terminal or go to the ticket counter if curbside is closed, or if you are:
- Checking in an unaccompanied minor
- Traveling with a pet
- Traveling with a firearm or ammunition in your checked bag
Before you leave for your flight, see if your airport offers curbside check-in. If it’s not listed as an option, you can check your bags at any American Airlines ticket counter.
