Yeah I'm not sure what the purpose of the check in even is. I've only flown in the last decade or so, so it's always been online for me. I believe in-person was actually a paid option for some airline.

    The only thing it seems to affect is what your boarding number is. Which, given the cast number of premium select special snowflake platinum veteran and family boarding groups that automatically go first ... Doesn't matter.

    I guess if they overbooked the plane, them you might get bumped if you check in late? Which is fucking stupid
