Self Check-In service is an innovation which helps customers with a more convenient and faster way to check –in. this innovation also help the airport runs more smooth and save costs. There are two ways of Check-In: Web Check-In and Self Check-In Kiosks in airport.
Web Check-In
Web Check-In allows customers go to AirAsia’s check-in website to use online self check-in service. Web Check-In is available for individuals, or group bookings with up to 50 guests. Customer only needs to choose departure and type in booking number to check-in. And then you need a printer to print the ticket. If you have baggage to check-in, drop your baggage at the Self Check-In Counter at least 60 minutes prior to the boarding time. The online check-in process only takes about 5 minutes which means once you have Internet you can easily check-in without waiting.
Self Check-In Kiosks
Self Check-In kiosks in the airport is available below 6 hours prior and 1 hour before the scheduled departure time. Customer needs the details of travel itinerary to check-in. Key in the booking number first and customer will see the itinerary and then customer taps confirm icon to print the ticket. Then customer can stamp Boarding Pass anytime at Document Check Counter to get to Boarding Gate. The whole process takes about 5 minutes too (without waiting in line).

    Terminal 1 is relatively small for a terminal but is easy accessed and serves passengers using simplified procedures. If you attend the terminal with car, it offers one 24/7 security controlled and one free, passengers only parking areas. They are both on ground level and located near the terminal’s building entrance. Moving from either parking to the airport entrance takes not more than a minute which is very convenient for the passengers, personnel and taxi drivers for arrivals. And if using civil transport, there is also a bus stop which is even closer to the entrance. Once in the terminal building, the passenger heads to the ticket center. It’s located close to the entrance so you go straight there to purchase a ticket first. Usually the waiting at the queue takes about ten minutes, varying in seasonal peaks and turn- downs. Serving the passenger doesn’t take long- less than 5 minutes from coming to leaving the deck, as the personnel is well- trained and experienced. Next passenger has to attend at check- in. The relatively small size of the departure hall allows you to quickly move from the ticket center to the check- in desk. But the size of the hall also has a disadvantage.…
