Most flights start boarding 30 - 50 minutes before scheduled departure, but the exact time depends on your destination and plane. Boarding ends 15 minutes before departure. If you’re not on board, we may reassign your seat to another passenger. You will not be allowed to board once the doors close.
To allow enough time, review our recommended arrival and check-in times before planning your travel day.
Customers who need special assistance and families with children under 2 years old can ask to board early at the gate.
